About
15th August 2025
4:00 pm - 8:00 pm
We’re excited to announce something brand new at Great British Car Journey: our first ever free evening car meet, happening on Friday 15th August from 4pm to 8pm.
That’s right, it’s totally free to attend if you pre-book, and we’d love you to join us. Just let us know you’re coming and you’ll get in for nothing. If you decide to come along on the day without booking, it’s still just £10 per car on the gate, no matter how many passengers you bring.
This is a relaxed and friendly evening meet for car lovers of all stripes. From cherished classics to Japanese imports, British icons, retro hot hatches, modern classics or even that quirky project car you’ve just got back on the road — whatever you’ve got, bring it along and share it with fellow enthusiasts.
No club politics, no judging, no stress. Just a good time with great cars and great people. Park up, grab a bite from the café, chat to other owners, and enjoy the atmosphere as the sun goes down over our beautiful riverside location.
We’ll have our display car park open from 4pm, with food and drink available throughout the evening. If you’d like to visit the museum while you’re here, you can pay normal admission inside, but there’s no pressure. The meet itself is all about the cars and the community.
So if you’ve been waiting for the perfect excuse to get out and enjoy your car on a summer evening, this is it. Book your free space now and we’ll see you on Friday 15th August from 4 till 8.
