It was a fabulous afternoon seeing all different makes and models of vintage cars. Besides the Volkswagens and Minis, I barely knew what any of the kinds were, but I still enjoyed looking at them all!
Besides the "retro cars", there were a ton of retro fashion and memorabilia stalls. There was one that sold old original vintage toys (the guy would not let me take a picture of anything!). But, the toys were very cool and very expensive.
They had swing dancers performing to 50's music and there was a place you could get your hair done in a retro style! Which, was very popular at the event.
There were food trucks and cocktail bars that were built into vintage cars, and the food was amazing.
There was a classic "British Afternoon Tea"
And some others:
They served the British Classic: Pimms. Also, they sold ciders and glasses/bottles of champagne. But, why buy a glass when you can buy the bottle?
It was a great family day out. It was a very chilly day, especially for being summer, but that's England for you I guess!
Definetly mark it on your calendar for next year! The different events I have been to at Lydiard Park have been a lot of fun, if you are in the area and something is going on there, it is worth checking out!
