Coventry Motofest - not your average car show returns for 2015. Based in the centre of the UK's motor city, a free public event organised and run by car enthusiatists. Provisional dates are the 30th and 31st may
So, lots of political developments since May around the change in legislation for road based motosport, meaning we will have a much expanded programme of events scheduled for 2015, particularly on the ring road (AKA the Cov-Schleife). A major press release to go out in the next week or so, announcing a significant addition to the MotoFest line up. So, if you came along this year, you'll be in for a treat in 2015.
In the meantime, have a look at this short video about the 2014 event. Best to turn up the sound too......
Cheers Matt

I reckon I shall be making this once more! I truly enjoyed the entire weekend of last year's show. Let us hope that the formula stays the same.

Need to get an old GP F1 car or two screaming around. That would sound incredible bouncing off the walls!

Excellent news! Will hope to be there again. I'm guessing they're going to have to close the opposite carriageway to traffic too!

Just wondering if there is any mileage in a dedicated Retro Rides area at Motofest next year? Hello Matt, Having done and enjoyed the 3 days at last year's Motofest with our 1988 5.3 ltr V12 series 3 Jaguar Sovereign, we're def looking forward to being there this year. We've just found and joined the Retro Rides site, so forgive us if that "dedicated Retro Rides area" wasn't for general comment. If it is, can you explain more please? Regards Peter and Linda Jones

I'm in the process of planning the display space for circa 800 cars, so i thought there might be interest in a dedicated RR club display.

I could be interested in a spot on an RR stand so long as the MG is still roadworthy by then..

I'd be up for an RR area too. Hoping to be in a Coventry built car this time!

Hoping to be in a Coventry built car this time! would need somebody from RR to organise it though. The new motofest webiste goes live in janaury with details of how individuals and clubs can register for space. Matt
