Hagerty has announced a special preview event for retro motor enthusiasts ahead of this year’s Festival of the Unexceptional.
Set to be held at the new Hagerty Clubhouse, based at Bicester Heritage in Oxfordshire, the 10th Anniversary Hangout will take place from 18:00 BST on Tuesday, 11 June 2024.
This comes several weeks before the headline Festival of the Unexceptional, being held at Lincolnshire’s Grimsthorpe Castle on Saturday, 27 July 2024.
The 10th Anniversary Hangout is aimed at anyone who owns a base-model motor, with cars from the 1960s through to the modern day being welcome.
Tickets for the Hangout are priced at just £5 per car, making it an affordable evening for owners of unexceptional cars to meet before the main event.
Hagerty has arranged for food and drink to be provided at the clubhouse, along with a chance to see the range of merchandise planned for this year’s Festival of the Unexceptional.
The owner of the most unexceptional car at the 10th Anniversary Hangout will also receive a special detailing kit.
A highlight of the 10th Anniversary Hangout evening will be the announcement of the cars chosen to appear at the 2024 Festival of the Unexceptional. Hagerty ambassador Paul Cowland will confirm the 50 mundane motors that will grace the Concours lawn at Grimsthorpe Castle.
Mark Roper, Managing Director of Hagerty International, said: “2024 celebrates 10 years of the Hagerty Festival of the Unexceptional, and this pre-event party allows FOTU fans the chance to get an early preview of the event merchandise, as well as hearing what cars will be in the concours, before anyone else.
“If you have a mundane motor, this is the evening event you have been waiting for.”
Tickets for the 10th Anniversary Hangout can be purchased now.
Those wanting to attend the Festival of the Unexceptional at Grimsthorpe Castle are also able to buy tickets, with prices starting from £16.96.
