Some of the world’s most expensive and high-powered sports cars will roar back into Harrogate town centre next week.

Harrogate-based Apollo Capital will team up with The Yorkshire Veteran Car Run to showcase more than 100 supercars, hypercars, and vintage classics for a third year.

This high-octane extravaganza returns to the Yorkshire Hotel on Prospect Place and will also see vehicles lined up along James Street, which will be closed for the duration.

The veteran rally, organised by antique car enthusiast Daniel Ward, will parade more than 60 vintage cars, including some of the earliest and most historic examples of motoring, while Apollo Capital, a finance broker of luxury, classic, super and hyper cars, will present their modern-day counterparts.

Big-name cars already confirmed for the Harrogate Concours include a Bugatti Veyron, McLaren Senna, Porsche GT2 RS, Aston Martin DBS, and Ferrari 12Cilindri.

Free to attend, the concours will be open for viewing on Saturday, June 20, between 10am and 3pm. A grand depart of all cars will then proceed through the town.

David Moss, managing director and founder of Apollo Capital, said:

This year’s event will once again be held in aid of Martin House Children’s Hospice.
