Good afternoon everyone 
Well itâs with great sadness that we have to announce that this yearâs ZEDfest (North West) event was the last for the foreseeable future.
As some of you will know, my own beloved Z3 was written off in a RTA a few months ago and for various personal reasons I have now moved on to be a Porsche Boxster owner (sacrilege I know!) In so doing I have resigned from my Z3 and Z Series Register positions with BMW Car Club GB as well as stepping away from running ZEDfest NW as I felt it was untenable for me to continue.
Since reaching this decision, we have had extended talks with interested parties to try to continue the event but sadly these havenât led anywhere and therefore we have no alternative than to close down the event moving forwards.
Despite this, there is some good news! ZEDfest (North West) was created after the original ZEDfest in Shepshed announced a couple of years ago that they would no longer be operating and there would be no more ZEDfestâs. We didnât want to see this happen and after protracted discussions with the organisers, it was agreed that we could set up ZEDfest NW to âfill the gapâ so to speak. However, as of this year the original ZEDfest has restarted at the same location in Shepshed so at least the event itself continues and hopefully goes from strength to strength.
Finally, a massive âthank youâ to all of you, the followers, the exhibitors, the visitors and the contributors for all your support and kind words over the past 2+ years.
Itâs been an absolute blast and the passion shown for everything BMW and especially the Z Series really has been amazing.
Good luck and good health to you all. Look after yourselves and each other.
