AutoFestUK celebrates 10 years with biggest show yet (4-6 July)
AutoFestUK is returning to the Bath & West Showground for its 10th anniversary event, bringing together modified cars, drifting action, supercars and family entertainment for what organisers say will be their biggest show to date.
Known as the UK’s only modified car event featuring its own amateur drift display, AutoFestUK has built a loyal following among car enthusiasts from across the country and is promising plenty of new attractions for 2026.
One of the biggest additions this year is a series of large indoor exhibition halls, providing space for more than 60 display vehicles and allowing visitors to get up close to some of the finest modified cars on the scene.
The event will also feature displays of supercars and hypercars, alongside high-speed drift passenger rides giving visitors the chance to experience the thrill of drifting from the passenger seat.
Those keen to test their own skills can take part in RC drifting activities and drift simulators, while vehicle safety displays will offer a more educational look at automotive engineering and driving techniques.
An extensive indoor marketplace will host a range of well-known automotive brands, traders and specialist suppliers, while owners will have the opportunity to enter the popular Indoor Show & Shine competition.
Families are also catered for, with an inflatable city providing entertainment for younger visitors throughout the day.
Visitors looking for a more exclusive experience can take advantage of the VIP Lounge, while food and drink will be available from the on-site bar and restaurant.
Tickets are priced at £20 per person, with free entry for children aged 12 and under. The event runs from 8.30am until 5pm at the Bath & West Showground.
Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a lead at all times.
Organisers say the event offers something for everyone, from dedicated car enthusiasts and modified vehicle owners to families looking for a day out packed with entertainment and excitement.
