Brits on the Beach 2019

This year will see the 19^th annual gathering of old British cars, trucks and motorcycles from all over BC and beyond on Transfer Beach, Ladysmith (10am to 3pm). We are expecting in excess of 250 vehicles to be exhibited in the beautiful surroundings of Transfer Beach accompanied by a background of sixties music.

"Brits on the Beach" is an annual show, organised by the Central Island Branch of the Old English Car Club of BC, a group of enthusiasts who spend many hours restoring and maintaining these wonderful vehicles.

Participants will bring their vehicles from the North island, South island, all over the mainland, Washington State, and sometimes even farther! If you enjoy all things British, you will have a great time.  You just never know what you'll see or who you'll meet.  Enjoy seeing the cars and talk to the owners to find out more about the cars and there fascinating history.

Vendors will be selling British related items including baked goods, memorabilia, car parts and much more. Families are encouraged to come out and participate in our second annual Passport Hunt, find 10 specific cars on the field, get your passport stamped and receive a gift from Ladysmith and District Credit Union and have your Passport entered into our Grand Prize Draw for a Remote Control Race Car (one for up to 10 years old and one for 11-15 years old). In addition, there will be a 50/50 draw and draws for several gift baskets and door prize draws for participating vehicles in the show. There will also be a food concession at the show, courtesy of the Ladysmith Lions Club

The OECC would like to acknowledge the Town of Ladysmith for their cooperation in helping the club stage this event at one of the best venues anywhere. OECC would also like to thank their sponsors, 49^th Parallel Grocery store, Ladysmith Credit Union & Pro Print printing & copying.

Everyone is welcome and the best bit, there is no charge for displaying a vehicle or visiting the display. We will be collecting for Ladysmith Food Bank and you can make a cash donation (most display entrants give $10 or more while visitors can drop a ‘toonie’ in the bucket) or a food donation at the front gate.
