Stokes Bay, Gosport Vehicle Rally, 26th August 2024 (Bank Holiday Monday)

Area Discussion Solent

Hi Everyone,

This is a heads up for this years Gosport Vehicle Rally, organised by the Gosport Rotary Club.

We attended the rally last year, which is held on the spacious grounds at Stokes Bay, Gosport. PO12 2BL, and it was a most enjoyable day out.

There are all types of vehicles that attend, many different types of stalls to browse, food outlets, music, and much more.

And if that isn’t enough, there is the beach and promenade at Stokes Bay itself,
and, if you’re feeling adventurous and you want to cool of from the blazing Bank Holiday sunshine, a dip in the Solent is just a short walk away!

Regards,

Ron

Hi Everyone,

For info, this event replaces the normal Wednesday evening drive/event, which would have been held on Wednesday 21st August, due to the close poximity of the Stokes Bay Event on the Bank Holiday Monday.

On a final note, has anyone registered for this event yet? I only ask, as I have not had a reply on this thread saying members have emailed: sec.gosportvehiclerally@gmail.com to request their entry onto the stand at this event.

Best Regards

Team Solent

Hi Everyone,

Hot off the press the latest on this event, is as follows;

I have been in contact with Penny Harris at the venue and Penny strongly recommends that **everyone pre-registers and pay our £4 discounted entry fee soonest as this will save us all time upon entry to the showground on the day, as there is likely to be slow moving traffic queueing for booking in on the day.

So those of us who show our pre-booking tickets, will get fast-tracked and waved straight through to our MX-5 stand, which Penny says will be much more civilised :smile:

She also said it will also be easier for the organisers to get the correct size of space for our group if we are all booked in - and we save £1 each on the normal admission price! :+1:

I am intending to intending take the Area Gazebo and for this I will need to get a PLI certificate sent to Penny, which I am asking Iain Fleming for, as he has all the insurance details they need to know in advance of the event.

I hope this helps clarify things for everyone.

Best Regards

Many thanks to those who have recently signed up for this event and hopefully this will help us acheive the requried numbers.

For info, below is an email I received from the organisers:

Hi Mal,
So far we only have three vehicles in your club registered for the above event -this will be insufficient to organise a group space

If you know of any others coming please could you pass on:

Pre-booking closes at noon on Sunday 18th August

Thanks

Penny

So, if you fancy a good day out on Gosport Sea Front, please register for this event using the details given in my previous post.

Regards

Mal

Hi Phil,

I am not sure either, as Penny has not provided me with a list of names, only numbers.
