Situated on the edge of the town, the Moffat Showground is home to the Moffat Classic Car Rally, an annual event which attracts classic and vintage cars and motorcycles from all over the world. It was begun in 1998, by the Scottish Rootes Enthusiasts, and this year over 900 vehicles attended. The event covers two days. On the Saturday 300 of the cars go on a "fun run" out to St. Mary's Loch and back. On the Sunday, besides the main showing of the cars, there is live music, entertainment and children's attractions, finishing with a ceilidh in the evening. For more information see the Moffat Car Rally website. http://www.sre-scot.co.uk/index.html
