With just under four months to go to Eurofest here is an update to keep you informed about the event.

Registrations for Eurofest 2016 continue to come in from around the world; USA, England, Ireland, Scotland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden, France, Spain, and Latvia so far!

The large convoy of cars continues to grow and we wish the DeLorean World Tour team every success as they continue their epic journey through Canada, the USA and Mexico en route to Belfast for a grand stand finish at Eurofest. www.deloreanworldtour.com

Preparations for clearing the original test track at the former DeLorean factory are underway with a preliminary inspection and DeLorean drivers will be assured of a pristine road by May.

One of the more interesting cars we hope to have on display is the Electric DeLorean which was coverted here by Queen’s University Belfast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzXDwZEgkZ8

It was with regret that we learned of the passing of Dixon Hollinshead last month. Dixon and his wife Barbara were our special guests at Eurofest 2011. Thank you Jordan Livingston of JLP Movies who put together a nice tribute. https://vimeo.com/jlpmovies/dixontribute

There are still many DeLorean owners and enthusiasts yet to register so this certainly will be a big event. Please tell your friends that if they intend to come to Eurofest that they should register soon as capacity is strictly limited. www.eurofest.deloreanowners.org

Hope you can join us!

Just curious...

Do people /Has anyone from the US ever ship their cars over to Belfast to participate in this event? If so, what sort of costs were involved? I think it would be super cool to drive my car on the test track again, but it may just be cost prohibitive.

A lot of us in ireland imported our cars from the USA. Approx $1500 one way and 6 weeks!

I will be there too like in 2011 with the Delorean.
I tried to register, but for some reason it would not allow me to make the payment. A change in credit card somehow cannot be processed with Paypal, so it keeps saying the card already excists.
The hotel and ferry are already reserved.

I went to a DSC show twice before and I would love to take the Delorean there too, but not possible.

So that is what we call cost prohibitive, LOL.

You won't spend $3000 to send your car on vacation?

[Morpheus]

Haha.... I'd rather spend that money on the vacation itself. I have to admit though, driving my car on the test track would be awesome.

The late Maurice Brockwell shipped his car from Perth in Australia to the very first Eurofest in Belfast in 1993.
After driving around the original test track at the factory in Dunmurry he and his wife Marianne then drove the car around Europe on a 3 week vacation.

In 2011 a car was driven from Hungary to Belfast for the event.

So far this has been the furthest cars have travelled to attend.

In just under eight weeks time over 200 DeLorean owners and enthusiasts from 18 countries around the world (from Austria to Australia and Scotland to Switzerland) will all converge in Belfast to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the production of our iconic stainless steel gull-winged marque. The longest convoy of DeLorean cars ever seen here will make Eurofest 2016 an event not to be missed. Apart from the grandstand finish of the 3 cars driving around the world there are cars coming from all across Europe with Slovakia and Hungary being the latest countries to be represented. Final arrangements are being put in place and previously unseen documents from John DeLorean’s office in New York will be on display. You can see some photos on our Facebook page; https://www.facebook.com/eurofestdelorean

Rare archive film will also get a screening – material that has never ever been on YouTube.

Belfast was recently voted the best city in the UK to visit and during the Eurofest weekend (26th to 29th May) apart from the scheduled events there will be lots to see and do. There’s a Continental Market in the grounds of the City Hall and Belfast Maritime Festival is also taking place. http://www.belfastcity.gov.uk/events/Event-64951.aspx

There’s just so much happening we’ve kept a few surprises in store.
