Marking its 25th anniversary in 2025, the UK’s prestigious Salon Privé Concours is launching an exciting new chapter with two exclusive driving tours. 

Created by event co-founders Andrew and David Bagley in collaboration with Rally and Zoute GT Tour organisers Filip and David Bourgoo, the Blenheim Rally Tour and Blenheim GT Tour promise to blend luxury with a motoring adventure through the English countryside.

Both routes showcase the country’s finest landscapes while following the traditional tulip-rally format. Participants will enjoy carefully chosen checkpoint stops at quintessential British pubs, offering refreshments and camaraderie along the way.

The Blenheim Rally Tour, designed for classics from 1920-1975, begins at London’s Fairmont Windsor Park Hotel with views of historic Windsor Castle. The journey continues through the rolling South Downs, featuring lunch at an exclusive countryside venue, before winding through the charming Cotswolds. 

The tour culminates at the magnificent Blenheim Palace for the Salon Privé Concours d’Elegance, followed by a black-tie Gala dinner. A farewell brunch in the Salon Privé gallery marks the final morning.

For modern motoring enthusiasts, the Blenheim GT Tour for vehicles from 1990 onwards follows the same spectacular route but starts one day later, ensuring these contemporary collector cars are present for the Salon Privé’s Supercar Saturday.

Tour dates:

Blenheim Rally Tour: August 26-30, 2025

Blenheim GT Tour: August 27-31, 2025
