A POPULAR motor event is set to return to Barrow this weekend.

A host of classic, vintage and unique vehicles are set to descend on Barrow next weekend for the Festival of Transport.

Following the success of the Barrow Classic & Vintage Car and Bike Show in 2018, the event has had a rebrand for 2019 and becomes the Barrow Festival of Transport.

This is the second marquee event organised by Barrow Business Improvement District, following the success of the Super Soapbox Race earlier this month.

There will be a variety of vehicles which will be parked along pedestrianised areas of the town centre, including the main shopping streets of Dalton Road, Portland Walk and Scott Street.

The event will take place on Saturday July 20 and will be a great opportunity for families to enjoy a great day out and see some interesting and unique vehicles
