MUSIC AND CULTURE
There’s a lot more to MotoFest than just cars. We will have multiple stages dotted around MotoFest where you can enjoy local up and coming artists and cover bands playing the classics we know and love!
You can also stroll through the Coventry Music Museum, head down to the Coventry Transport Museum or do a bit of shopping while in the city centre.
Do a bit of everything. Do MotoFest your way.
