Just to let TMers know that, sadly, the MSCC has decided not to take part in the November Classic Motor Show at the NEC. In spite of the great precautions to be taken by the organisers, it was felt that for the safety of our volunteers it would be wise not to take part this year. There is also the added uncertainty as to whether the show will actually go ahead as the restrictions seem to have come to a standstill and there may even be further lockdowns etc. at local or national level. We have taken fairly high level expert advice on this and the decision was not taken lightly. Sorry to disappoint all our usual TMers. Also noted in Miscellany - no Chicken Curry club in September.

It is with great sadness that I announce to you today that we have decided there is no alternative but to postpone the 2020 edition of the show, despite pulling out all the stops to try and make the annual season finale happen.
Having been given the greenlight by government for organised events to resume from 1 October, we were so excited at the prospect of bringing the community back together, with all our COVID-secure measures in place to create a safe and controlled environment for all involved.
Although the latest government update hasn't changed this possibility, it is currently under review and has created uncertainty for both our exhibitors and visitors. Add to this the prospect of local lockdowns still being in place and the communities' understandable concern about what an indoor event experience will be, even with all the precautions we're putting in place, we have taken this difficult decision.
As a team, we are extremely disappointed as we have done everything within our power to try and make it happen. We want to thank all our partners, clubs, exhibitors, visitors and suppliers who have supported our endeavours to bring the show to you this year. We understand that this decision will be a disappointment to many people who eagerly await the Classic Motor Show each year and look forward to when we can get together again.
While we won't be coming together as a motoring community this year within the halls of the NEC, to celebrate the classics we love, we will continue to share stories, memories and news across our digital platforms.
Silverstone Auctions will also continue as scheduled with what is due to be their biggest and best sale yet.
We also will be honouring our commitment to help the Sporting Bears Motor Club raise funds for their chosen charities and hope the community will continue to support them as you have done so generously in past years.
There will be a time when #WheelMeetAgain
