Things we have learned in the last 24 hours…

1. If you want to get traction on your social posts, threaten to tow cars away and you will go Banbury-Viral.

2. We knew this already, but this town isn’t as bad as everyone makes out - you guys are amazing!!!

3. You can fit 150 amazing vehicles into the town centre and still have room for the amazing people of Banbury to walk among them 🙂

Thank you to to all our vendors, sponsors and exhibitors, to everyone who displayed their vehicles, to what must have been the thousand(s) of people who came to experience it… but most importantly to our rockstar event team that made it look easy so easy!!

We want your help! We are in the process of shortlisting the charity that we are going to fundraise for at this year's event and we want input from you to help us decide which direction we should go in! We will review the comments Sunday evening and make a decision from there

Our current short list is:

- Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital (Smaller regional cause - based in Haddenham but regularly rescuing/caring for wildlife from our area)

- Campaign Against Living Miserably - (National Men's mental health charity )

We have fundraised for Reducing the Risk of Domestic Abuse and Katharine House Hospice in previous years, both of which are incredible causes supporting our area, and look forward to finalising this year's charity.
