The Great Ashby Gathering
On Sunday 7 June, take a step back in time with the return of Ashby's iconic scooter rally in the heart of Market Street.
Known as The Ashby Gathering, last year over 1,000 scooters arrived on Market Street, creating a real spectacle for both enthusiasts and interested on-lookers.
Taking place from 11am from the Queen's Head Pub, Market Street will be full of classic scooters and modern builds, as well as scooter clubs and lone riders.
Along with checking out the scooters, enjoy live DJs and bands in the bandstand opposite the Queen's Head, as well as authentic Caribbean cuisine and a great community atmosphere.
