Great event,the outdoor area especially the car drifting show was fantastic, I'm concerned about the lack of some proper ICE cars in the indoor exposition....the madness of the electric cars will doom this event and many more similar soon unless we do a quick U turn on this electric madness. Is pointless to go and see multiple EVs practically looking all the same with all big touch screens....BORINGGGGGGG...bring back proper gauges and proper ICE cars not silly electric toys.
What a great family day out. There is so much to see and do. Lots of cars/ stands and fantastic entertainment through out the whole day. Would highly recommend to anyone that loves cars. Transport from car park to main arena was also excellent.
This is my favourite car show in the UK, although is it difficult to compare, as Goodwood Festival of Speed and the Festival of Unexceptional gather different audience. If you want to see the latest modern cars, have an opportunity to try them, compare features, chat with representatives, avoid going to numerous car dealers to choose the best one, this is a place for you. You can also enjoy fantastic stunt shows (cars and bikes), talks, nice live music, racing gaming events, kids events, chat and selfie with Bumblebee. There is also a great display of classic cars to enjoy, although I was under impression that last year this section had better representation. It's a fantastic event for petrolheads of any age, suitable for kids and accessible (with mobility scooters, ramps, accessible toilets). There are plenty of food options, but you can also bring your own picnic. This year you will get some nice freebies from Cazoo, as the main sponsor. Parking is far away, but it's brilliantly organised, with double deckers taking you directly to the Farnborough Conference Centre gates, where military music band will make the wait enjoyable. Wear some comfortable shoes and take some water! See some examples of the cars on display below. 🚗🚘🚙🛻🏎
The event is well organised, we managed to get in to the car park without queuing and on to the bus straight away. From parking to arriving at the venue took about 15 minutes. The gates to the venue do not open until 10am (Saturday) we arrived about 0915 so had quite a wait. There were some entertainment whilst queuing (Bumble Bee, magician and a lady on stilts as well as The British Army band) There's lots to see inside the venue with various stalls selling things such as car cleaning products, car wraps, gin, rum, art and various food stalls. There are electric cars that you can sit in and some you can test drive such as Tesla, BYD and Ford. The main arena outside had drifting and stunts and there's another smaller arena at the opposite end to the entrance that showcased drifting too. There are various food and drink stalls throughout the arena inside and out. Plenty of toilets inside. It is a long day with a lot of walking, and one thing they could have done better is to have seating areas as there is no seating at the arenas so I'd advise bringing a small camping stool. There was a max power area inside the venue at the opposite end to the entrance as well as some old classics outside. There were various car celebrities there such as Mark McCann who brought a few cars, Fuzz Townshend and Tim Shaw. Overall very good value for money and not too expensive a day.
What a day! What an event! We have been coming from Notts every year. Last year and the current one are absolutely outstanding. This year we walked in at 10am and left after 5pm. There so much to see and to take part. Usually we come for a day but after this year we are planning to book 2 days. Great choice of the location. Sadly this year no designated area for electric vehicles as there was last year. Overall - great success!
