DATE CHANGE! Hinckley BID's 11th Annual Motorshow - now on Sunday, 25th September 2022

Remembering Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II 1926 - 2022

As the scheduled date of our annual motorshow fell on the day before the State Funeral of HM Queen Elizabeth II, the decision was taken at short notice, as a mark of respect, to postpone the event to the following week.

We are grateful to HBBC and LCC for supporting this decision and working with us to ensure that all the necessary plans could be put in place in such a short time frame.

We hope that you will be able to join us for our biggest event of the year - our 11th Annual Motorshow on Sunday, 25th September 2022 between 10.00am and 4.30pm in Hinckley town centre.

Motorshow REVISED DATE - Sunday, 25th September 2022

FREE Family Event

In its 11th year, our Hinckley BID Motorshow is a huge event on our annual calendar. Therefore, taking the decision to move the date back a week was difficult, but in view of the country being in a period of mourning for HM Queen Elizabeth II, we felt this was entirely appropriate.

Sunday, 25th September is the new date and there will be hundreds of vintage, classic and special interest vehicles on display and a real festival atmosphere throughout.

This is a very 'family friendly' event which is FREE to attend and will also have some children's entertainment laid on, alongside a live band in Market Place and music playing in Argents Mead.

For those who know and love the show, we look forward to welcoming you back. For anyone who is attending for the first time, you will not be disappointed!

Please spread the word to friends and family and we would be especially grateful if you could mention the date change too, just in case we haven't managed to alert everyone to that through our own extensive efforts.

Our apologies to any exhibitors who had registered for the original date and are now unable to join us. We hope to see you back next year.
