Billing Off Road Show
Everyone loves Billing! A staple for Land Rover enthusiasts, the Billing Off Road Show blends camping, shopping and off-roading into a fantastic weekend, and the 2023 event was no exception. Proof if ever it were needed that as media partners for the show, LRM brings the sunshine with it – the Northamptonshire countryside was bathed in fantastic weather on the weekend of 1-2 July, and soon vehicles that turned up clean were getting progressively muckier with each drive of the on-site off-road courses and infamous mud run. The Challenge South West crew made sure the action didn’t stop, offering white-knuckle passenger rides around an impressive course on the sprawling hillside, while traders and punters lapped up the sunshine.
The show was packed, and Editor Martin and Associate Publisher Steve Miller took to the Show and Tell stage at lunchtime on both days to interview enthusiastic owners about their chosen steeds, followed by a special procession to celebrate 75 years of Land Rover. Saturday evening brought the ever-popular Charity Auction, with many traders kindly supplying wares to be auctioned off, with all proceeds going to the Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals.
Auction over, revellers made a beeline for the beer tent to enjoy great live music and polish off a few pints before getting stuck back into the action on Sunday. A brilliant event as always – we can’t wait to see more of you there next year.
