Longships & Octagons 2026

Longships & Octagons 2026 is here!

This year we are hosting the event in the heart of Coventry, the spiritual home of the Rover brand. Right outside the Coventry Transport Museum, Millennium Place makes for a perfect spot. With all the amenities and attractions of the city centre, the transport museum to explore and plenty of food and drink options very close by. 

2026 marks 50 years of the Rover SD1 and 40 years of the Rover 800, so in tradition this event will focus on and celebrate those huge milestone anniversaries. As always in Longships and Octagons, all Rover and MG cars (and other associated brands) are welcomed to join the display.

Tickets are per car, including all passengers. However there are also plenty of public car parks close by if you just want to come along and see the cars on display. 

We are proud to be working with Coventry Transport Museum for this and they are offering significantly discounted entry to the museum as well as a free pastry with each hot drink purchased from the café! (Vouchers for these will be issued on the day)

We look forward to seeing you there!
