Derek Bell

Award-Winning Motoring Events Company V Events Offers Two Spectacular Tours of Provence to Coincide with their Saint-Tropez Party

RENDEZ-VOUS RIVIERA 1st October 2022 - Saint Tropez Polo Club - The first is The Derek Bell Tour, hosted by Porsche legend and 5-times Le Mans winner Derek Bell, which starts with a lunch on Cap d’Antibes on Tuesday 27th September. The 20 classic and modern sports cars will then set off on a 4-day adventure, taking in the finest driving roads and staying each night at the best hotels in the region. Then on Friday afternoon they will arrive in Saint-Tropez and the first of 2 nights at The Kube Hotel, in time for a party by the pool, with views that stretch out across the bay to Saint-Maxime.

The next day it is Rendez-Vous Riviera, a relaxed and intimate concours-style event at the Saint-Tropez Polo Club featuring live music by rock and roll legend John Oates (of Hall & Oates fame), DJ sets by Anna de Ferran, champagne and oysters, Mirabeau rosé and cocktail bars, and superb food served throughout the day. And of course there will be a display of some of the finest cars ever built. For full details, please visit Rendez-Vous Riviera or get in touch with Chris Bucknall at V Events.

The following day (Sunday 2nd October) there will be a closed road parade for all the cars around the village down to the port, and then drinks at the Saint-Tropez Lounge Club will mark the end of Derek’s event.

Then there is The Jodie Kidd Tour, hosted by international fashion model-turned motoring journalist Jodie Kidd, whose guests will arrive in Saint-Tropez at the same time as Derek’s (Friday 30th September) and who will also enjoy the same 2 nights at the Kube Hotel, the party, and Rendez-Vous Riviera. But the parade on the Sunday morning mark’s the beginning of her tour, which sets off on the same route as Derek’s, but in reverse, finishing with a night at the Hotel de Paris in Monaco on Tuesday 4th October, and then a farewell lunch on the beach in Cap d’Antibes the following day.

What better way to round off the summer than with a relaxed tour and a weekend of partying in Saint-Tropez. All classic and modern sports cars are welcome, and if you don’t have a suitable car we can arrange the rental of one for you.
