Event Description
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 2024 currently include Olly Murs, UB40, Sam Ryder, Beverley Knight, Deacon Blue, Scouting for Girls, RPJ, The Feeling, Reef, Furnace and the Fundamentals,
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 on Saturday afternoon, a Track Parade on Sunday, and inclusion to the CarFest Best In Show Car Club Award!
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 2023. 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.

How to register
Please note the following which are the Conditions of signing up to attend:
- By signing up the two adults included are committing to attend and support the Figaro Owners Club stand together for at least 90 minutes each day.
- Your Figaro will need to be located onsite for the whole event as access on and off the site for cars is very restricted.
- It works much better with everyone camping on-site, the only exception being if someone has medical reasons to stay off-site. Please note that access around the festival can be very busy so anyone staying off-site will need to ensure they arrive in plenty of time to support the stand.
- By registering for this event we will need to message you along with other members attending so please provide contact details you are prepared to share with other members.
- You will be a member of the club at the time of the event.
