PETROLHEADS rejoice – the Dorset Blind Association Motor Show is returning to Lulworth Castle.
The event is scheduled to return for its eight outing on Sunday, May 12, with organisers promising a “memorable gathering of classic, sports, and supercar enthusiasts” in support of the charity.
In 2023, the show brought more than 5,000 car fans together, raising an impressive £22,000 for the Dorset Blind Association, which supports blind and partially-sighted people across the county.
More than 230 cars were on display, with club stands from the Jaguar Enthusiasts and Porsche Club GB among those taking part.
Gary Neild, from sponsor Blue Sky Financial Planning, said: “Blue Sky Financial Planning are delighted to support the motor show once again at Lulworth Castle on May 12.
“The 2023 show drew huge crowds and was an enormous success, and we are looking forward to being part of this wonderful event again next May.
“We admire the DBA team for their energy and passion, and the great work they do. They help so many people live a fulfilling life and that resonates strongly with our ethos at Blue Sky where we are focused on ‘what we cause and how we make people feel’.
“Our relationship draws on many parallels, and we love working with a like-minded, enthusiastic team.”
Classic, sports, and supercar owners are being invited to take part in the event. However, exhibitor bookings are already filling up, so early registration is encouraged.
The showground will open to the public free of charge from 10.30am on the day, offering a family day out with live entertainment, a kids’ fun area, street food and stalls selling local artisan craft and produce.
Neal Burton, a car exhibitor, said: “A really great day run by a super team. The show is laid back with a diverse entry of vehicles, so there’s plenty to see.
“Set in a fabulous location, what more could you ask for from a car show that supports such a worthy cause. I’m booking in my 1964 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia for next year. See you there.”
Entry for exhibitors is £12 per person, including showground display, a breakfast roll, and a hot drink at registration, as well as entry to Lulworth Castle itself.
Booking in advance is essential, as tickets are expected to sell out.
