OhSoRetro began with a simple idea. Celebrate the styles, vehicles, music, and culture that never really fade away.
Founded by Lee Collier, OhSoRetro grew from a personal love of classic and retro culture into a brand and an annual event that brings people together from across the UK. What started as a passion has become a shared experience, blending nostalgia with a modern outlook and a strong sense of community.
At the heart of OhSoRetro is the belief that retro is not about looking backwards. It is about appreciating timeless design, craftsmanship, and character, whether that is found in classic cars, scooters, motorcycles, fashion, or the people who keep these scenes alive.
The OhSoRetro Show has become a central part of that story. Returning every year to Margate, the event brings together thousands of enthusiasts for a full day of vehicles, live music, trade stands, and familiar faces. It is a celebration built on atmosphere rather than hype, welcoming newcomers and long standing supporters alike.
Alongside the event, the OhSoRetro brand continues to evolve through limited clothing and accessory drops inspired by the same culture and values. Designed to be worn, not stored away, each piece reflects the spirit of the show and the community behind it.
OhSoRetro is proudly independent, community driven, and rooted in a genuine love of retro culture. Whether you are joining us online, wearing the brand, or attending the show, you are part of a story that continues to grow year after year.
