We want to say a massive thank you to everyone who joined us at Walcot Rugby Club for this year’s Bath Festival of Motoring and Music.

Whether you brought along a beautifully restored classic car, rocked out to the incredible local bands across our music stages, or simply came along with family and friends to soak up the sunshine and community spirit, you made the entire weekend an unforgettable success.

Thanks to your incredible generosity from entry tickets to our silent auction, we have raised vital funds for local causes, including the Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance, Freewheelers Blood Bikes, and Glasshouse Academy. We couldn’t have done it without our passionate exhibitors, talented performers, dedicated volunteers, and, of course, our wonderful visitors.

See you all next year!

The Bath Festival of Motoring and Music offers an opportunity to experience iconic automotive exhibits spanning decades.

From super cars, to classic cars, from motorcycles to other motoring genres – there is something to appeal to every enthusiast – with new exhibits added each year.

Attendees of all ages and interests can get up close and personal with a wide range of vehicles, experience the owners’ product passion and learn about their history in a safe, fun and inspiring environment.

This year’s festival will also boast even more live music performances across two dedicated stages plus a range of hospitality stalls for ‘pitstop’ relaxation, ‘refuelling’ and admiring all things automative. 

This longstanding festival has enjoyed a successful history and, as with previous years, will be held at Walcot Rugby Club, opposite the Lansdown Park and Ride, so easy for access with camping available to those travelling or wishing to make a weekend of it.

Beneficiaries will include the Bath and Wiltshire Air Ambulance and Freewheelers Blood Bikes, supporting vital services in the community.
