The Riley Cars Archive Heritage Trust is pleased to announce The Victor Riley Tribute Day in recognition of Victor Riley who sadly passed away in August 2025. He was a great friend and colleague to everyone in the motoring world and a renowned advocate for both the Riley family and the Riley Marque.
The Victor Riley Tribute Day will begin at 10.00am with a display of Riley Cars at the museum entrance.
(Please note: those attending the day’s event are encouraged to bring their Riley and will be able to move their vehicles into the secure museum carpark before the afternoon session begins).
Other owners of Riley cars, not wishing to attend the full day’s Tribute Day, are also welcome during the morning session.
From approx. 1.00pm proceedings begin in the museum’s function rooms which will include introductions, guest speakers, presentations and screened archive footage. This will be followed by a two course meal beginning at 4.30pm.
Included in the ticket price attendees will also have the opportunity to wander around the Transport Museum at their leisure.
A free coffee and tea station during the day will be available. There will also be a licenced bar.
Places can be secured in advance at £48 each. Payment details will be published in due course.
Dining tables will seat 10 people and will be available for groups wishing to sit together.
