Chicagoland MG Club: Driveline October 2021
Past event

35th Annual British Car Festival
Sunday, Sept 12, 2021
Harper College, 1200 West Algonquin Road, Palatine, IL

Each year the show features hundreds of automobiles ranging from those in Concours condition to just normal everyday drivers. This year was no exception as over 400 beautiful cars consisting of 99 MGs, 61 triumphs, and 248 others were gathered on the field representing virtually every marque produced in England under almost perfect weather conditions. This is one of the largest celebrations of British automotive design and engineering in the United States. Door prizes and popular vote awards were presented to the lucky winners.

Food was provided by Robinson's Ribs. Many food vendors as well as some of the entertainment did not attend because of the uncertainty of the show due to the pandemic.

Admission for the general public was free, with donations encouraged for Shelter, Inc., which is a non-profit dedicated to providing community based, emergency and longer-term housing for abused and neglected children.





The British Car Festival is organized by the British Car Union, which is a non-profit founded in 1986. It consists of representatives from 20 different Chicagoland British car clubs whose sole purpose is to coordinate the events critical to making the British Car Festival a success each September.
