CarFest Latest News

Following last year’s hugely successful inaugural CarFest events, Silverstone Auctions will once again be holding two sales at this year’s CarFest events.

Silverstone Auctions’ ‘Pride & Joy’ classic car sale, which formed part of the CarFest South extravaganza, has raised a fantastic £55,000 for the BBC’s Children in Need appeal.

If one car sums up the spirit of the ‘Pride & Joy’ charity car auction at CarFest then surely it’s a 1975 MGB GT Jubilee which has been owned by the same family nearly 40 years.

Possibly one of the most desirable lots at CarFest South – a 1964 VW Spilt Screen Dormobile Campervan - will be auctioned with ALL the sale proceeds going to BBC Children in Need.

The clock’s ticking for entries to be submitted for consideration into the ‘Pride & Joy’ car auctions at either CarFest South on 25th and 26th August or CarFest North on 8th and 9th September.

Thanks to Silverstone Auctions there’s still one more chance to get hold of tickets for CarFest, a unique family festival of cars, food and music, which is shaping up to be one of this summer’s ‘hottest’ events.

Silverstone Auctions has been asked by TV and radio presenter and famous car nut, Chris Evans, to hold two special auctions in aid of Children in Need at his inaugural CarFest over the August Bank Holiday weekend (25th and 26th August).
