Convoys
To make this 28th Annual show even more special and to make as many exhibitors as
possible feel they are part of what makes "Beltring" what it is, five themed
evening convoys are to take place this year.
After last year's success with the convoy of steel and the
GMC road run, requests have flooded in from the many diverse exhibitor groups
requesting similar events.
We would like to invite as many vehicles as possible to
join in and continue to make Beltring THE show to be at. If you are not taking part, please line the
routes wave and cheer them on. There
will be many fantastic photo opportunities, because where else in the world can
you see so many of the displays concerned actually in action.

around America's field then back into and around Big Monkton's field and
finishing on the main road towards America's field. This will be the first time that a large contingent of Third
Reich re enactors have been permitted to march around the showground. The quality and authenticity of these re

portray.
