About This Event

Beamish Museum welcomes the North East Lotus Owners Club and TVR Owners Club for a display of classic vehicles on the Events Field near the Fairground. It's a perfect excuse to wander the museum's living streets while admiring some beautiful cars. In the 1950s welfare hall, the band Hop, Skiffle and Jump perform from 12pm until 1pm, followed by a Uke Club session from 1:15pm to 2pm where visitors can develop their ukulele skills. The 1900s Pit Village folk also celebrate their Sunday School Anniversary, one of the community's biggest annual occasions. All activities are included with standard museum admission. Beamish is open 10am-5pm.
