NEC's November show is cancelled

Post by Keith Bennett » 21 Sep 2020 16:18

A message from Lee Masters, NEC Classic Car Show Director

"It is with great sadness that I announce to you today that we have decided there is no alternative but to postpone the 2020 edition of the show, despite pulling out all the stops to try and make the annual season finale happen.

"Having been given the green light by government for organised events to resume from 1 October, we were so excited at the prospect of bringing the community back together, with all our COVID-secure measures in place to create a safe and controlled environment for all involved.​

"Although the latest government update hasn’t changed this possibility, it is currently under review and has created uncertainty for both our exhibitors and visitors. Add to this the prospect of local lockdowns still being in place and the communities’ understandable concern about what an indoor event experience will be, even with all the precautions we’re putting in place, we have taken this difficult decision.

"As a team, we are extremely disappointed having done everything within our power to try and make the show happen. We want to thank all our partners, clubs, exhibitors, visitors and suppliers who have supported our endeavours to bring the show to you this year."

Yes, and it's such a shame that the Club secretary, Mervyn, and 'our' Stoney had to spent time with the preparatory bookwork needed when we all hoped the Club would be allocated a stand at the Show. Sorry chaps and thanks for your efforts.
