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.

A message from the chairman

Dear Friends! Another show awaits us in 2020. Our 22nd! We have made an early decision this year on our special focus: It will be SUNBEAM. A marque with an interesting and wildly varied history. If all goes well we will welcome the Sunbeam Tiger owners club into the grounds for their annual meet. It will be a spectacular display of these dinky little cars with their big mustang derived engines. Registration will open on March 1st. We will build on the improvements of last year with an extended PA System that will better cover the classic exhibit area. This should aid our compère to get his message heard. The entry system with more buffer room combined with the staggered entry times worked a treat and queuing in the village is now a thing of the past. We are looking forward to another great event with hopefully firmer ground underfoot than last year. Thanks for all your support and see you on August 15th 2020.
