The world’s most gloriously ordinary car show returns.Join us on Saturday 25 July 2026 at the magnificent Grimsthorpe Castle for another celebration of the everyday cars that once filled Britain’s driveways, supermarket car parks and school runs.
The Festival of the Unexceptional is the only concours dedicated to the humble heroes of motoring - the hatchbacks, saloons and family cars that were once everywhere but are now disappearing fast.
Expect a field packed with wonderfully mundane machinery from the 1970s, 80s and 90s, including:
🚗 Concours de l’Ordinaire - where the best preserved everyday classics compete for 1st place
🚗 Hundreds of unexceptional classics on display
🚗 Trade stands celebrating the cars we grew up with
🚗 Food, drinks, a live stage, music and a relaxed summer day out
🚗 A stunning historic setting in the Lincolnshire countryside
Whether you owned one, learned to drive in one, or remember them from every street in Britain, this is the perfect chance to relive the cars that defined everyday motoring.
📅 Save the date - Saturday 25 July 2026
Tag a friend to go with you! Because ordinary deserves celebrating!
