 The event provides a chance for car and motorcycle enthusiasts to gather in a convenient location and admire the unique characteristics
of the many distinctive automobiles that have originated in Britain. This is a nicely informal gathering of fellow minded souls, and the organizers encourage all owners of British cars to participate; any car of any age, and motorbikes too! 

There will be music to enhance the atmosphere, this year provided by The True Oldies 106.7 radio station.

Raffle Prizes: Last year our first prize was a weekend for two at the W Hotel, downtown Atlanta, with a generous cash donation of $500 spending money from the Iron Horse Tavern; a gift basket from Taste of Britain; tickets to the Fox Theater; gift certificates from the downtown Historic Norcross merchants and restaurants. An equally grand array of prizes will be offered at this year’s Car Fayre. Don’t forget that pre-registration for a car includes a free raffle ticket.

No charge for the general public.  Please Join Us for a Day of Fun, Fellowship and Charity.
