Hundreds of vintage scooters will rev into life and roar through a coastal town this weekend, as a popular festival shifts gears to a new, bigger venue.

The Great Yarmouth Scooter Weekender will take place from October 11 to 13 bringing enthusiasts from across the country for a big bash at the Nelson Hotel on the seafront.

The rideout is scheduled for midday on October 12 before advancing through the town, over the Herring Bridge and back to the Prince Regent, a pub on Regent Road.

The event is now celebrating its fourth year and aims to raise thousands of pounds for the East of England Air Ambulance. 

Across three function rooms at the Nelson Hotel, there will be live music playing everything from ska to mod music as well as DJs spinning Northern Soul classics. 

Visitors to the festival can choose to come along just for the day for £5 or they can choose to stay for the whole weekend at the caravan site.

The event is being held between October 11 and 13 with the trader fair opening at 11am.
