Wheels in motion for 11th annual Legenderry Motor Show

St Columb's Park is gearing up for the Motor Show.

The event will take place this Sunday, 24th September and this year, the organisers of the event will be dedicating their special 11th annual show to the memory of car-lover Given Gillespie.

The Motor Show started during the City of Culture, in 2013, by Richard Gillespie after a family tragedy led him to organise the show.

Commenting ahead of the Show organiser Richard Gillespie said: “We are so excited to see the wide range of vehicles attending the show this year. There will be all types of vehicles from vintage classic, retro, American, super, luxury car, bike, van, tractor or truck – all types will be on display and we would love to see you at the Show.

“The Motor Show is about anything with an engine, whether it’s a car, van, bike, tractor, truck or even boats and this year we are very proud to be adding the team from the Ulster Aviation Society to our exciting line up as they will be attending with their Tornado Cockpit and Alouette III ’202’ helicopter.

"Staying with the aviation theme once again the Irish Coastguards Rescue Helicopter Rescue 118 will be arriving at the Show, the Ulster Gilding Centre are bringing a glider to the Show and the North West Model Aircraft Club will also be with us.

“We are also excited to have Country singer/songwriter Ritchie Remo to entertain us throughout the day as well as our Special Guest, online comedy sensation Fabu-D better known as 'Black Paddy'! All in all it will be a fabulous family fun-filled day out and we really looking forward to welcoming everyone to St Columb’s Park.

“This year proceeds are in aid of charity Kidney Care UK who provide direct support to our local kidney patients and their families right here in the City and across Northern Ireland, both emotionally and financially.”

The Legenderry Motor Show will take place on Sunday at St Columb’s Park from 11.00am. More information on the show can be found on Facebook at LegenDerryMotorShow.
