Classic and Vintage Vehicle Rally

Classic and Vintage Vehicle Rally

Have you got a passion for wheels, motors and history? If so, you’ll love to hear that classic and vintage vehicles are returning to the heart of railway heritage for the return of our annual Vehicle Rally.

Head on down to see some of the most beautiful cars, motorbikes and other vehicles from decades gone by and chat to their loving owners. There will be plenty of polished-up vehicles on display for serious enthusiasts and casual visitors to enjoy and pose for those amazing selfies.

It’s a fantastic day out for enthusiasts and families alike. Admission is totally free of charge.

FYI - According to 'the internet' a vintage vehicle is one produced between 1919 and 1940, and a classic vehicle is any vehicle over approximately 40 years old.

If you wish to display a vehicle please click through to book your tickets. Please add the 'Register Your Vehicle' ticket and fill out the online form. This will go straight to the events team who will confirm your spot prior to the event. We are accepting motorbikes, cars and other small vehicles no bigger than a standard van.
