Thanks for starting this event topic Lisa 

Yes, It's back for 2026!

This event was a new venture for Brookland in 2025 and turned out to be a barnstormer!
Feedback from attendees was extremely positive, with many wanting to return in 2026, me included!

Here is the official Brooklands Museum video of the day, with the "Rotary Community" stand
(the RX-8 OC combining with several other clubs) featuring in the video from 2m16s right to the end.

24 Mazda rotaries on the Rotary Community stand in 2025, situated right after main pedestrian entrance to the venue:

Brooklands Museum is situated in Weybridge in Surrey, with easy access from the M25, junctions 10 or 11.

Enjoy a day devoted to vehicles from Japan, with a host of entertainment and food.

Expect a feast of chrome and colour with a vast number of gleaming vehicles and much more. Visitors with Japanese vehicles may enter via Campbell Gate on Brooklands Road.

Enjoy a vast display of Honda, Subaru, Mazda, Kawasaki, Nissan, Datsun, Toyota, Lexus and Suzuki!

Admission includes access to Brooklands Museum for the day. Discover supersonic flight with Concorde and get up close to the aircraft designed, built and flown at Brooklands. Explore the historic site brought to life through interactive collections of motor vehicles, aircraft and real-life experiences. Hear the stories of the pioneering men and women that shaped the world of motoring and aviation. Re-live the thrills and glamour of speed and flight, from over 100 years of great British history at Brooklands Museum.

If you have never been to this museum before, then I can highly recommend it. There is plenty to see as this site is rich in history for both cars and aircraft.

I have updated the list 

If it's not too much trouble can you confirm "Going" on the Rotary Community Facebook group event page here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1910663326545653/?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22surface%22%3A%22group%22%7D]%7D

That way Jim, Eva and I can keep track of numbers attending in one place.

Sadly, given last year's event was excellent, I'm now unable to attend Brooklands this year due to a diary clash 

[LynneE]

Ticket purchased!
I'll be travelling up the night before and will stay overnight near the museum. Please let me know if you're meeting beforehand for a convoy arrival.
See you all soon!

Excellent 

It was a great venue and show last year and would have returned this year if it wasn't for a diary clash!
