Are you interested in Unimogs?
If so then you are most welcome to attend our “Mogfest” series of informal meets of Unimog owners and aficionados. These meetings commenced in 2005 at the North Worcestershire Vintage Tractor and Engine Club's Astwood Bank Vintage Gathering. However from then we've expanded our meeting calendar with at least three meets in the Midlands and South scheduled for 2009.
If you wish to take part in our meetings at events then please apply direct to the hosting event using the relevant entry form provided. Please also notify Stuart Lamb of your intentions via e-mail so that we can keep track of likely numbers. Attendance at short notice and/or on the day may be acceptable but at the discretion of the organiser of the hosting event. Note that Unimog enthusiasts without vehicles are always welcome to visit through payment of the hosting event's usual entry fee, where applicable.

Important: please note
"Mogfests" and other meetings are gatherings of an informal group of Unimog owners and enthusiasts. The principal objectives of our meetings are to share and promote enthusiasm for Unimog vehicles, and basically enjoy the company of like-minded individuals. There is no motorsport or competitive element to our meetings. Note that no club or association exists to cover activities of this group. If the meeting is held as part of another event, such as Astwood Bank Vintage Gathering or Stourport Vintage Steam Rally, then owners and vehicles are bound by all the requirements of that event, such as registration, insurance and movement restrictions. Where meetings are held outside of formal events, then visitors take part as individuals responsible for their own safe conduct and all liability issues. Generally there is no charge for participation, however reasonable contributions towards the costs of refreshments, the hire of off-road facilities etc. may be required. It is a condition of participation that the coordinators of all informal 'Mogfest' meetings take no responsibility or liability for any aspect of such events.
Note that the Mogfest event coordinators support responsible use of Unimogs and other off-road vehicles. Appropriate and considerate behaviour is required during all events. Meeting coordinators reserve the right to exclude participants either not complying with these general requirements or who, through their actions or behaviour, bring the meetings or Unimog owners in general into disrepute.
The bottom line is that our meets to date have been all about having a great time and appreciating our vehicles. We hope to welcome you at our meets and to share the joys of owning Unimogs.
