Event Description: Classics at the Villa was started 4 years ago by 4 Italians passionate about food and cars. The problem we felt was that when we went to car shows, the food was burger and ice cream vans and expensive, or lobsters and champagne and even more expensive.
So we started our own show off the back of 33 Italian 'scampaganatas' (an Italian family event with superb Italian street food made by Italians with Italian ingredients for Italians) so we have not only experience, but also great purpose built facilities.
Add to that acres of land at 'Villa Scalabrini', a residential care home founded by the Scalabrini fathers which also specialises in Alzheimers, and our profits go to the Villa to help the residents. Disabled drop off available and to badge holders disabled parking.
