Next year is our 25th anniversary, and we're working on a new event format to celebrate. It might be something we repeat annually, so what do you think we should call it? Open to other suggestions too!

I think live sounds best but went for 25th as it only happens once!

Members meeting whilst an appropriate name for what it likely is just sounds like a rip off of goodwood.

Or a meeting of utter members, which (if Forum-based) won't be far off. biggrin

25th is silver. So...

Resale silver?

If the rants from that Porsche 25 year thread are anything to go by, "PistonHeads Porsche Party"?

Any news on what the event is? Would be interesting to try and resurrect the BTaP nights of old

Thanks for all the suggestions/votes so far!

Think of it as potentially a Sunday Service on steroids for a larger audience, so it won't be anything like BTaP I'm afraid.

What could possibly go wrong?

Given some of the threads on here, if a selection of 'members' are going to attend then you'd better call it the Pistonheads Punch Up

Have another vote here.

You could also then break the year into Interim Services (Sundays at manufacturers), and the Major Service (annually).

Not that the manufacturers will like that...

I like this if it's an recurring event.
