Beaulieu is looking forward to an exciting new year of events as it announces its 2022 calendar*, with a packed line-up of successful shows returning for the new season.
Eagerly anticipated is the return of Spring Autojumble on 14th - 15th May, following a two-year break. Motor enthusiasts will be itching to buy and sell treasured spare parts, automobilia, retro memorabilia and complete cars, with hundreds of stands and vibrant car club displays as part of the big weekend. Following in its tyre-tracks on 10th - 11th September will be the much-loved International Autojumble.
Incredible hot rods, custom cars and bikes, and classic vehicles from America, will all be the stars of the Hot Rod & Custom Show on 19th June, with music and retro fashions at the heart of this colourful show. While the high octane thrills will continue with the Beaulieu Supercar Weekend on 6th - 7th August, with exciting demonstrations of jaw-dropping supercars that all the family will love.
A big hit with gardeners when it was launched in 2021, BBC Gardener’s World Spring Fair will be transforming the Beaulieu event fields into a green-fingered paradise as it returns from 29th April to 1st May. The show will be packed with even more to treat gardeners, including flower displays and plants to buy, inspirational Beautiful Borders and gardening supplies for sale, to the BBC Good Food Market, street food, musical entertainment and more.
No less than 16 Simply rallies are scheduled to take place throughout 2022, with favourites including Simply Aston Martin on 3rd April, Simply Porsche on 5th June and Simply Japanese on 24th July, being joined by brand new rally Simply Italian on 24th April.
