Classic Car and Bike Show

Roll back the years and join us for a friendly classic car and bike show.

You can expect to see a variety of fabulously elderly vehicles, including:

1907 Holsman

1962 AEC Burwell & District Coach

23 Austin 7’s

1965 Ford Mustang

1987 Citroen 2CV

1950s Citroen Traction

More vehicles will be confirmed daily. The ones listed are just a few of those that have been confirmed so far. You can expect to see over 40-50 cars, plus a selection of motorbikes.

If you would like to bring your own classic car or bike (the older or more unusual the better), please contact us to apply for a space. One of the Trustees will then send you a short form to fill in to return. Small vintage tractors and vans are also welcome. We only have a limited amount of space, but we will do our best to accommodate as many aws we can.

Please do not bring your classic car unless you have had confirmation from us. Those who have returned their forms and have had confirmation will be contacted by Saturday 16th August with instructions for getting on site on Sunday.
