Auckland, the Very Vintage Day Out.


Today and tomorrow – Aucklanders welcome to The Very Vintage Day Out 2017. It is running at Shed10, Queens Wharf, Auckland, Saturday 28th October and Sunday 29th October.

Opening Hours: 10am to 6pm on Saturday 28th October and 10am to 4pm Sunday 29th October.

History: the event was running successfully for 5 years as a single day event at Alexandra Park Raceway. Now the Very Vintage Day Out has been purchased by Sheena and Mike Oughton.
Sheena has extensive experience in the exhibition industry and delivering major events with ATEED and Mike has been in sales and marketing for many years.

Their shared vision is to grow the event to include all elements of the vintage era in a larger vintage venue and format but retaining all the key ingredients of the earlier events.

The Vintage Day include the crowning of the Miss Pin Up New Zealand 2017 in association with Sailor Jerry, The Very Vintage photo safari and the Very Vintage Bake Off in association with Edmonds.

VVDO 2017 will have a full programme of entertainment for the weekend including live bands, dancers, performers, a vintage car display, motorbike display, military display, makeovers, fashion shows, high tea as well as over 80 vendors on site selling a huge range of vintage products.

View below our photos from the Very Vintage Day Out.

Auckland - Brit & Euro Classic Car Show. Classic Cars!


It was great exciting family event on Sunday 6th March 2016, 10am-3pm at Lloyd Elsmore Park, Pakuranga, Auckland.

British and European cars have always played significant role at the Auckland transportation scene. The brand new Brit & Euro Classic Car Show in Auckland on March 2016 is a special day show-casing cars of a classic style.

The very first an informal car show was orginised at Lloyd Elsmore Park in 2014. And the venue proved to be very suitable to be extended with more participants. An inaugural meeting held in early 2015 with representatives from a variety of influential car clubs made the existence of Brit & Euro Classic Car Show.

Representatives of about 60 clubs participated in the show at Lloyd Elsmore Park, opposite the Howick Historical Village. About 400 cars are shown. And the best – almost all of them are in a good condition. Anyway, just look at our photos and you will see them.
Hundreds and hundreds aucklanders enjoyed the show and great sunny day.

To summarise, Brit & Euro Classic Car Show was very interesting and we will hope that it will be held every year.

Enjoy the photos of those classic cars. More photos are coming, so come back to www.SoftFern.com.
