The Show

The Capel Classic Car & Bike Show

The Capel Classic Car & Bike Show takes place every year on the 3rd Saturday of August. From humble beginnings in the early 90's it has now become one of the most anticipated shows in the season of Classic Shows.
The show opens to the public at 12 noon and runs until 5pm. Entry Fee to the entire show £5/pp. Children under 12 go free.

Auto Jumble

The Auto Jumble sale has its own attraction and is now inseparable from the show. We are trying to get in as many stalls as space permits. Want to have a stall or pitch? Please follow this link and register.

What our visitors say

What the show does well:: Good mix of exhibiting vehicles and the traditional village show offering family entertainment for all . It’s also well organised and marshalled

Any other feedback:

Mr N B, Car or Bike exhibitor

What the show does well:: Number of cars all to high standard A focus group i.e. Land Rover really good idea. Perhaps sports cars old and new for next year as everyone loves sports cars

Any other feedback: Great show – really well done to organisers. Even parking was well managed and entry fee just right

Mr U E, Capel Show visitor (Horti & Cars on Saturday)

What the show does well:: Vast exhibit of cars and bikes of all makes and ages

Any other feedback: The grouping of the same name of vehicles could have been organised better

Mr A G, Car or Bike exhibitor

What the show does well:: Good mix of cars and bikes with stands and stalls to attract the whole family.

Any other feedback: Not so efficient this year in parking up, seemed a little confusion between marshals, not that it spoilt the enjoyment, just an orbs on my part.

Mr R E, Car or Bike exhibitor

A message from the chairman

Friends! The 2018 show lies about a month behind us as I write this. And what a show it was. There were more Classics, more visitors (26% up!) and more money raised for all our good causes. Please see above for some rough numbers. We listened to the survey feedback of last year and improved toilet facilities as well as our PA System. Having done all that we also maintained our approval rating in or survey of 9.4 on a scale of 1-10 (220 respondents). It remains humbling to receive such an accolade. The Capel Classic Car & Bike Show is a splendid opportunity for the village to meet and show ourselves at our best. It has been my privilege to chair the committee since 2016. As the show combines with the Horticultural Society Summer Show it has become the largest village fair in Surrey. This puts extra responsibilities on the organising committees to make sure everything keeps running as smoothly as possible. By and large we appear to achieve just that as the Survey score bears witness to it. I said humbling, but it is something we can be rightly proud of too! The 2019 show will be better still.
