Rugby Return of the British Car Show Saturday, August 17, 2024Rugby is a Victorian English village that was established in 1880 on the Cumberland Plateau in Middle Tennessee. Historic Rugby offers original historical buildings, lodging, shops and dining. It is the perfect setting for a British Car &amp; Bike Show.For 2024, “Return of the British” will be held on Saturday, August 17. While the car show is the reason for the event, there are also other activities (see schedule below):Friday evening, we gather for food, drink and friendship at the Harrow Road Cafe area. That’s followed by Irish Road Bowling. Never heard of it? Check it out on Bing or Google. It’s a lot of fun. On Saturday, show day, there are cars to see and talk about, a silent auction and vendors’ goods to peruse. During that lull between the end of judging and the awards announcement, you needn’t be bored: There’s always some new activity offered, plus a National Parks Service Ranger led hike, and a free abbreviated tour of some of Historic Rugby’s buildings for show car registrants. All day long there is shopping for unique Rugby souvenirs and gifts and a Tea Table-Setting contest for you to judge. And if you would like to enter the Tea Setting Contest, please register <a href="https://www.zeffy.com/ticketing/a8718e47-7e0e-4795-9e32-9bc5f9d14d1c" target="_blank">HERE</a>. Saturday evening, all those remaining in Rugby, club members, volunteers, Rugby Residents and Historic Rugby, Inc. members, gather at Oak Lodge, bringing along a dish/libation to share. It’s an evening of fun and review of all the hilarious events of the day.Sunday morning, finish packing and say “good bye and see you at the next car show” to your friends. The car show is open to all British marques.  Judging is by popular vote and trophies are awarded.Net proceeds benefit Historic Rugby, Inc. - Keeping Tennessee &amp; British History Alive Schedule: all times EasternFriday - August 165:30 - 7:00 p.m. - pick up registration packets5:00 - 7:00 p.m. - burgers and dogs, hot off the grill, for those who pre-registered6:00 p.m. - Irish Road bowling with Rugby community volunteer leadership7:00-9:00 p.m. - music under the stars; local craft beer available for purchaseSaturday - August 178:30 - 11:00 a.m. - registration open11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. - cars and bikes on display; popular choice voting; lunch vendors on the grounds10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m - silent auction1:00 p.m. - voting ends 1:30 p.m. - award presentations  Please register here on the Zeffy platform in advance.
