The fourth annual Causeway Coast Ford Fair will take place once again at the Dunluce Centre in Portrush on Sunday June 1st.

The event officially launched at Coleraine Borough Council offices on Thursday, April 17 with members of the Ford Enthusiast Club, Northern Ireland Capri Owners, Coleraine Council, an anchor sponsors Lindsay Ford.

On show for inspection were a few of the models which will be on display at this year’s event. The organisers will be hoping for better weather this year as last year’s event tested the resilience of the Ford owners who still managed to come in their hundreds, despite the weather being a wash out. There were still over

300 cars on show including some appearances from models from the Ford Heritage Museum.

Radio personality Alan Simpson who proved such a hit with the crowd last year, has again confirmed his attendance and will be entertaining the crowds in his own inimitable style with lots of music, interviews and more.

It is not too late to include your car in the event.

Application forms are still available from this link.

The closing date for the applications is Thursday, May 8 so there is still plenty of time to get your car included – Vintage, Classic, American, Heritage, there will be all shapes and sizes on display.

Dermot Rafferty, branch manager of Lindsay Ford, Coleraine said: “We are hoping that this years Ford Fair will be bigger and better than ever.
The 1st Sunday in June is now firmly established as the Causeway Coast Fair in Coleraine Councils Event Calendar and we already have many cars entered for this year’s event.

We want to continue to see the event grow and need as many cars as possible on display at the Dunluce Centre, Portrush.

This is a unique event for the north coast and Coleraine mayor, Councillor Maurice Bradley is delighted that Coleraine Borough Council is in position to support it. He said: “I’m pleased to see such a well known event return to the beautiful north coast. “The Ford Fair attracts many families and motor enthusiasts to the Triangle area and proves to be great day of free family entertainment. “Council has supported the Ford fair for a number of years now and it has grown to become a key attraction in the Borough’s annual programme of events.





This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Ford Escort and the organisers would love to see a larger number of Escorts at the Fair. This much loved car holds memories for many Ford owners, and it would be great to see as many examples as possible on display.
