Simply Japanese: Beaulieu Motor Museum, Sunday, 20 July

[casey]

Simply Japanese will return to Beaulieu (Hampshire) on Sunday 20th July 2025 for an excellent day out for owners and enthusiasts.

Set in the parkland of the National Motor Museum, the event is open to all ages and models of Japanese cars and motorcycles and is always a highlight of the events calendar.

All participants have the opportunity to be chosen as the winner of the People's Choice Awards, selected by public vote. Prizes are awarded to the winner and runners-up.

If you have not been before, this venue has a lot to offer, beyond the the cars on display and the Museum. The venue is especially good for families. See here for more details of:

Palace House - the Montagu historic family home since 1538
Little Beaulieu play area for kids
Secret Army Exhibition - Beaulieu was a training school for SOE agents during WWII
Beaulieu Abbey & Exhibition
Extensive grounds and a riverside walk
and more .... there are often activities, such as Falconry flying displays, plus Veteran bus and car rides

An interactive map of the venue is available here

Yeah we will try and make it to this one again, and tie in family visit. Will ask the Yarriis again aswell.

I’ve moved a bunch of posts regarding the position of our club stand to the Events planning area, to avoid it cluttering up this topic.

In summary, I have been in dialogue with the event organisers, who assure me that our stand this year will be in the show area, not the public car park, as happened last year!
