St James's Motoring Spectacle 2026 | Classics, Race Cars & Veterans on Pall Mall
Nov 1, 2026
November sunshine, London skies, a little
unexpected paradise, almost packed, the crowd
rolls in, there's a cheerful clatter and a cheeky grin,
outside the Royal Automobile Club,
we found the capital's motoring hub,
turn back the years, let the engines play,
we're off to the earliest motoring days.
On now comes the line
Feel the joy as history drives.
Hats and goggles, smiles all round.
Hear that wonderful old world sound.
This motoring spectacle.
What a day, what a festival.
Before the road to Brighton calls,
we're celebrating here on Pall Mall.
Long bright dresses and tailored coats.
Scarves wrapped snug around eager throats.
Polished shoes and the tip of a hat.
When did London last look like that?
Shoulder to shoulder, the crowds lean in,
waiting for another engine to begin.
Children wave as the wheels turn slow,
and a hundred years melt away as they go.
I'll walk on the line.
Feel the joy as history drives.
Hats and goggles, smiles all round.
Hear that wonderful old world sound.
Stains this motoring spectacle.
What a day, what a festival.
Before the road to Brighton calls,
we're celebrating here on Pall Mall.
Tomorrow brings the London to Brighton.
Early start before the rising sun.
Today we've time to stop and stare
at all the living history gathered there.
Groundhog Wise got
We've got the camera rolling,
catching the laughter, the crowd's out strolling.
So wherever you are, come share the view.
We're bringing a little Pall Mall to you.
Pall Mall comes alive.
What a glorious day to drive.
Autumn sunshine, crowds adore
the sounds of motoring years before.
Stains this motoring spectacle.
Every wave makes it memorable.
Before the road to Brighton calls,
one more cheer from us on Pall Mall.
Spreading spirits high,
one last wave as they roll by.
Keep those wheels and stories turning.
Keep that love of motoring burning.
The joy as history drives.
Hats and goggles, smiles all round.
Hear that wonderful old world sound.
Staged motoring spectacle.
What a day, what a festival.
Before the road to Brighton calls,
we're celebrating here on Pall Mall.
Pall Mall comes alive.
Keep those wheels and stories turning.
Keep that love of motoring burning.
