The brainchild of Chris Evans, CarFest has raised over £20m for UK Children’s Charities over the last 10 years! This year North and South combine together again into one CarFest in Hampshire. CarFest brings you multiple magical festivals in ONE with live music performances, and a whole range of activities across the site – CarFest, StarFest, KidsFest, AdventureFest, SpaFest, FoodFest, and RetroFest! All raising millions for children’s charities, with a shared vision of more varied experiences, more inspiration, more great talent and even more kindness.
Talent performing in 2025 currently include Travis, Tom Walker, Dakota, Deko, Seasick Steve, Rick Parfit Junior Band, Ellie Sax, Madness, Squeeze, Lightning Seeds, MIsta Jam and Rhythm of the 90s,
Car Clubs have been at the centre of CarFest for many years, and this year, even more so with an opportunity for us to participate in the Overton Town Car Parade, a Track Parade, and inclusion to the CarFest Best In Show Car Club Award – which Figaro Owners Club won in 2024!
We all arrive on Thursday 21st August, going for a meal that evening, and the event runs for three days (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) with members departing on Sunday evening or Monday morning.
We are awaiting final details of how many cars we can have attend so initially it will be a matter of joining a waiting list. Final payment will be required in June 2025. Members are required to attend for the full weekend and staff the Figaro Club Stand during the day – a rota will be established to ensure a fair distribution of duties and that everyone gets a chance to see the rest of the festival activities.
Camping:
Everyone camped onsite which we felt was better for the team spirit, and made for no worries of anyone getting stuck in traffic, so our preference is for everyone who is attending to camp. The only exception would be due to a medical condition.
