What is VauxALL South?
VauxALL is more than just a car show, it’s a celebration every Vauxhall, Opel and Bedford - past, present, and future.
VauxALL, launched in 2023 at the British Motor Museum, has quickly become the annual meeting place for enthusiasts and fans of Vauxhall, Opel and Bedford models.
The first VauxALL South was held in 2025 and proved to be a popular addition to the Vauxhall calendar. The final get-together for the entire Vauxhall, Opel and Bedford community at the end of the 2026 show season.
We are heading back to one of the UK’s most stunning motoring venues, Beaulieu, the National Motor Museum, down in the New Forest.
