How this started

In the late summer of 2004, representatives from several of the Ottawa based British Car Clubs got together and started discussing the concept of holding an all-British car show in Ottawa. We realized there were already several car shows in Ottawa each year, but none which showcased only British cars. And so the All British Car Day concept was born.

 

The first Ottawa All British Car Day was held in July of 2005, and it has been held every year since then in mid-July. Always held at the Britannia Beach Park on the shore of the Ottawa River, this has become a popular event in the Ottawa British car community. Except for a few years which were sunny all day, we somehow seem to have had at least some rain blow through on the show day. While not ideal for a car show, it has not dampened our enthusiasm for putting on this event every year.
