STOKE ROW AND NUFFIELD MOTORSPORT DAY 2026
The first Stoke Row Racing Car Show was held in 2009 and 18 years later it has developed into a local "landmark", now held at a more spacious venue in Nuffield, still with the dual objectives to raise money for charity whilst having fun with our cars. Money raised at that first show was used to produce a neonatal dialysis machine which had been designed by one of the tenants on the site. These machines have now saved the lives of many babies who were too small to receive conventional dialysis.
Since then the event has grown every year, except for 2 years during the Covid era, and significant proceeds have been collected and donated to various local and national charities. The event out-grew the site in Stoke Row and in 2014 moved to a new more spacious venue in Nuffield, just 2 miles from the old site. An important part of the event is the Maharajah’s Tour which is held during the morning and arranged by the Craven Motor Club. This is an interesting road route, normally about 70 miles long, around the area. It is open to any vehicle and normally attracts over 60 participants.
The 18th-anniversary event in Nuffield was held in fine conditions on 19th July 2026 and attracted hundreds of visitors and a display of well over 150 classic and collectable racing and road cars
The organisers are extremely thankful for the ongoing support of the event by numerous sponsors, providers of many services and the generous public.
We look forward to the event continuing to provide a great day’s entertainment for the local residents as well as raising money for local charities which perform such valuable services for many people. The next Motorsport Day and Maharajah’s Tour is scheduled for 18th of July 2027 at the same venue in Nuffield.
