Description

In 2024, to mark the 125 year anniversary of the launch of Fiat, the Fiat Motor Club (G.B.) created a family event which not only celebrated Fiat vehicles of all ages, but the achievements of other designers, manufacturers and engineers. Held here at the home of British motor history, the event was a roaring success and will be back bigger, and better , for 2026 !

​Unlike many Italian motoring events that are organised by era or by marque, Fiats & Friends is open to every Italian vehicle from 1899 to the present day including cars, electric vehicles, motorcycles & mopeds, commercial vehicles, campers, supercars… even tractors!

We are also once again celebrating our Friends with any interesting classic & retro cars , so if you don’t have an Italian car you are still welcome to display. In fact, it was a Renault that won the award for best non-Fiat at the first show…!​

With such a wide variety on display, the Fiat Motor Club (G.B.) have set the bar high to make this the largest gathering of Italian vehicles in the UK show calendar , and would love to have you there to join in the ongoing celebrations at this year’s event!

Find more event details on the dedicated Fiats & Friends Facebook page or via their website .
