About Bromyard Speed Festival

A Celebration of Cars in the Heart of Herefordshire

Bromyard Speed Festival brings together people who share a love of cars, motorsport and the Herefordshire countryside. Since its beginnings in 2016, the festival has welcomed enthusiasts from across the region to celebrate everything from classic and historic vehicles to modern performance machines.

What started as a small local event has grown into a popular community festival, attracting hundreds of vehicles and thousands of visitors. The festival combines the excitement of motorsport with a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that makes it enjoyable for enthusiasts, families and visitors alike.

More Than Just a Car Event

At its heart, Bromyard Speed Festival is about community.

The event was created not only to celebrate cars and driving, but also to support local good causes and bring people together in the town of Bromyard. Over the years the festival has raised funds for a range of charities and community organisations, helping make a positive difference locally while creating a memorable experience for everyone involved.

Visitors can enjoy a diverse range of vehicles, from vintage sports cars and historic racing machines to modern supercars and performance cars. Whether you’re a lifelong petrolhead or simply enjoy a great day out, the festival offers something for everyone.

The Bromyard Hill Climb

A highlight of the festival has been the Bromyard hill climb, where a wide variety of vehicles take to the hill in a non-competitive demonstration run. The hill climb captures the spirit of classic British motorsport events, bringing the sights and sounds of historic racing to the streets of Bromyard.

Spectators can watch cars tackle the course, explore the paddock area, and meet owners and drivers who are passionate about their vehicles.

The hill climb is expected to return in 2027, and planning is already underway to make it an exciting and memorable event for participants and visitors alike.

Events in 2026

In 2026, Bromyard Speed Festival will host a series of relaxed car events leading up to the return of the hill climb.

These include:

• Breakfast Car Meets
• Scenic road tours through the Herefordshire countryside
• Community gatherings for car enthusiasts

These events offer a chance to meet fellow enthusiasts, share great cars and enjoy some of the best driving roads in the region.
