This year Beaulieu will be returning to its French roots, holding its first every Simply French rally on Sunday 8th
July in the grounds of the National Motor Museum. This fantastic themed
event is set to be a great day out for French car enthusiasts and
families alike.
All owners of French vehicles are welcome to drive down to Beaulieu
and display their cars in the picturesque Beaulieu parkland. It’s a
great opportunity to meet other like-minded enthusiasts, admire their
vehicles, as well as enjoying everything the Beaulieu attraction has to
offer. All French marques are welcome at the event, from the major
manufacturers such as Renault, Peugeot and Citroen, to the lesser known
Aixam and Gordini.
The day will feature a cavalcade around the attraction and a display
in the Arena of a selection of vehicles chosen from all the rally
participants. Visitors to Beaulieu will be given the opportunity to vote
for their favourite vehicle in the line-up, and at approximately 2.45pm
the winner of the People’s Choice Award will be announced and presented
with a special edition Beaulieu Trophy, commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Beaulieu attraction.
As France is renowned for its fine cuisine, the Brabazon Restaurant
will be taking on a French theme for the day, serving foods inspired by
the country.
For entrants arriving on the day in their French vehicle and
participating in the event, individual ticket prices are £10 per adult
and £5 per child. Camping in the Beaulieu parkland is now available for
rally participants on the nights of the 7th and 8th July at £7 per person per night. Pre-booking for camping is essential.
