Brands Hatch will host MG Fest, the MG Car Club’s official national event, this August. This is a completely new fixture for the circuit, blending motorsport with a key social date for enthusiasts of one of Britain’s best loved marques.

A highlight among the on-track attractions will be the MG Cockshoot Cup, a long-standing and beloved MG Car Club race series which will feature a wide variety of machines bearing the classic ‘Morris Garages’ emblem.

Off the circuit, the venue will be filled with a vast array of MG and Rover cars of all ages. This will include extensive representation from the MG Car Club, passionate individual owners, and contingents from additional MG orientated groups. Further entertainment will include the MGCC California Cup Autotest and Autosolo competition, MG Motorsport demos and displays, plus an MG world record attempt.
