Food & Drink Trader information

We look to confirm our food and drink suppliers for the season usually in the autumn of the year prior. This helps everyone plan and as much as possible, other than some late sickness, means our food and drink concessions for our show season is booked in advance.

Great British Motor Shows is a series of classic and performance motor shows across the country. We are looking to have 12-14 events that will require a mixture of providers and we will be updating this page and our Facebook (along with the Festival Traders UK group) once the tender process is open.

We are interested in suppliers who can either work across the entire season and bring together the mix of needs in one or individual local suppliers. If you can collate and coordinate as a single supplier for all the events or if you have interest in attending a selection, indicate which shows you are interested in supporting when you submit your details.
