Gloucester goes retro 24 August 19

Anyone aware of this?
Looks like the Italian Automoto Club are involved and Oilyrag.

An exciting new Italian Automoto event will take place in Gloucester this summer: as part of the Gloucester Goes Retro Festival, the entire historic docks area will be transformed into the Italian Quarter for the day. We have space for more than 200 cars (and bikes) alongside the docks, in a stunning location by the Quays area.

Information and entries from paul@italianautomotoclub.co.uk

I'll go have a look as it is local to me

If I'm not mistaken, Paul is/was one of the organisers of the now discontinued Bristol Italian automoto festival.

Is there going to be a ride-in?

Not the faintest and not really looked yet as I only picked up on this the other evening.

Could be worth dropping him an email, what do 'we' want to know?
Is it worth asking if there's a space for UKMOC ? or should this come from someone 'official' within the club organisation like local rep?

I think it's about the only bank holiday this year that I'm not working so I'll be scooting over to have a look.
