London Motor Show, formerly the London Motorfair, is a motor show in England. It was held biannually at Earls Court Exhibition Centre, from 1977 to 1999.[1] When the event won the support of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders and P&O Events, in October 1993, the name was changed from the London MotorfairtoThe London Motor Show.[2]

The London Motor Show was revived in May 2016, being held at Battersea Park,[3] with Prince Michael of Kent as its patron.[4] The event of 2017 also took place at Battersea Park, before it was moved to ExCeL London from May 2018 and continued in 2019.

The event of May 2020 was cancelled, due to the ongoing pandemic, and rescheduled to take place from 16 to 18 July 2021, in Battersea Park[5] but the 2021 event did not happen and was effectively replaced by the new British Motor Show event at Farnborough in 2021.

2019

[edit]

The fourth London Motor Show took place at ExCeL London (for the second time since its revival) from 16 to 19 May 2019, once again it featured a zone entitled "Built in Britain", promoting engineering by the British, as well as a live drift experience hosted by Caterham Cars.

2018

[edit]

The third of the “relaunched” London Motor Show took place at ExCeL London (for the first time since its revival) from 17 to 20 May 2018, within the Royal Wedding. It featured a zone entitled "Built in Britain", promoting British engineering with exhibitors like Aston Martin, Bentley and JCB.

The second of the “relaunched” London Motor Show ran from 4–7 May 2017, again in Battersea Park, with forty exhibitors. There were four premiers in the United Kingdom

2016

The relaunched London Motor Show ran from 5–8 May 2016 in Battersea Park, with forty exhibitors. There were two premiers in the United Kingdom, and the launch of the prototype hydrogen car, Riversimple.

2003

[edit]

Following the cancellation of the show of 2001, the show of 2003 was planned to be called the New London Motor Show, and was due to take place at Earls Court from June 19 to 29, but following the twelve month consultation process with the motor industry in Britain, the organisers decided to cancel the show in November 2002, due to lack of support.[9]

2001

[edit]

The show of 2001 was scheduled to run at Earls Court between 17 and 28 October, but was cancelled in July 2001, due to difficult trading conditions.[10]
