About this Event
The Isle of Wight Takeover is so much more than a car show — it’s a full driving holiday experience for clubs, families, and enthusiasts. Every year, groups from across the UK and beyond travel to the island for a weekend packed with cars, community, and unforgettable memories in a relaxed, friendly setting.
Built on passion and connection, the Takeover brings people together. Whether you’re catching up with friends, meeting new faces, or admiring stunning builds, the atmosphere is all about shared enthusiasm and good vibes.
