MotoFest Coventry

Date 06 – 07 June 2026

The popular Motofest Coventry has been confirmed for 2026 after an absence in 2025, with this year’s event taking place on the 6th and 7th of June in its usual city-centre location. This year it will incorporate a new Motofest Classic element, celebrating the city’s role in the automotive industry over the years, and there’ll be a focus on the 40th anniversary of the Jaguar XJ40 at the cathedral ruins, the brave, square-edged replacement to the original XJ, which was produced in Coventry. Motofest will also host a round of the Autotest Championship, and the usual demonstration runs on the ring road. Attendance is free, while displaying your own classic in one of the designated areas is £5, with the festival suggesting you book in advance given the event’s popularity.
