The Lincolnshire Centre of the MG Car Club is pleased to announce the return of our popular Pride of Ownership evenings for the 2026 summer season.

These relaxed and enjoyable gatherings provide members with the opportunity to showcase their MGs in friendly surroundings while enjoying good company at a selection of excellent local venues across Lincolnshire.

Unlike formal concours competitions, our Pride of Ownership events are judged by the venue’s landlord, adding a fun and informal touch to the proceedings. At each event, the winning cars will receive a commemorative rosette with rosettes awarded down to third place.

A small entry fee will be payable on the night for those wishing to enter.

This year’s venues and dates are:

• The Wishing Well, Dyke near Bourne – 13th May
• The Abbey Lodge, Woodhall Spa – 4th June
• The Ferryboat, Washingborough, Lincoln – 23rd June
  including a BBQ  bookable beforehand – here is a link to the entry form https://mgcclincolnshire.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Lincoln-POO-2026-entry.pdf
• The New Inn, Great Limber – 5th August

Whether you are entering your MG or simply coming along to admire the cars and enjoy the atmosphere, all members are encouraged to attend and support these enjoyable social evenings.

We look forward to seeing a wonderful variety of MGs throughout the summer and sharing another successful season of Pride of Ownership events.
