Rainbows Drive it Day Classic Car Run 2026

Rainbow Classic Car Run

The day will start at the Buttercups Tearoom, Billesdon (between Leicester and Uppingham) with registration and collection of route information and the possibility of coffee and a bacon cob. There will then be a relaxed run through the Leicestershire countryside after which we arrive at Stonehurst Farm, Mountsorrel to join a display of other Drive it Day cars.

During the run there is no time pressure and entrants are encouraged to take their time and enjoy the scenery stopping for refreshment as necessary before completing the day with a hog roast.

The event is, as ever, run by volunteers and all proceeds go to the Rainbows charity.
