The 2026 Forres Theme Day will be held on Sunday, May 3, 2026, in Grant Park, Forres, featuring the theme "Working Classics".

The Rotary Club of East Sutherland is holding their annual Coast to Coast road run again this year on Saturday 16th May.  It’s open to 50 cars and is always a great day.  

Further details can be found at the link below.

This event is a private, and by invitation only, car show and aircraft fly-in featuring a car Gymkhana, tractor rides, and a digger challenge,with all entry fees and associated activities going directly to CHAS (Children's Hospices Across Scotland) - a very worthwhile charity.

For those of you who do not know the background of CHAS, the charity was founded in Scotland in 1992  by parents and professionals to provide palliative care for children with life-shortening conditions. It opened Scotland's first children's hospice, Rachel House in Kinross (1996), followed by Robin House in Balloch (2005), and operates the CHAS at Home service.

This event at Balado on the 24th May is being organised by the Rotary Club of Kinross and District in conjunction with the owners of Balado airfield.

Balado airfield dates back to WW2, when it was used to train Hurricane and Spitfire pilots. The airfield has, over recent years, had massive investment and is now a large site with modern hangars and beautifully maintained.

The event itself, which is not open to the general public, will take place between 10 am and 4 pm and comprise a static car show, inviting all car clubs, marques, and makes of cars from far and wide, as well as aircraft 'Fly In.' 

The entry cost for the event, with all monies going to the charity, will be £20 per car.

As well as the displays of cars, those of you who would be willing to contribute further to the charity, we are looking to identify owners who would be prepared to carry out, just a few, passenger runs on the day for some of the guests. 

These runs would only take place over a 1-hour or so period during the day, therefore not detracting from you being able to enjoy the event itself.  Your vehicles would be parked in a separate display area, to allow for seamless movement for the short passenger runs (Suggested circa 15 - 20 mins each run).

During the day, there will also be numerous aircraft taking off and landing, as well as being on static display, with the possibility of some passenger runs being made available on the day for a donation to CHAS.

This year’s rally takes place on Sunday 14th June 2026 and is once again returning to the original home of the rally Castle Field at Kildrummy Estate for a fourth year.  

The new estate owners have generously offered to host the event back at the original location for the foreseeable future and put a lot of work in preparing the area.  Each year should see improvements over the last as the organisers strive to make this one of the premier car events in the region.
