About Us

Launched in 1984 The Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show is now the world’s biggest classic vehicle club event. Celebrating its 40 Anniversary this year, it is the UK’s number one national indoor classic motor show. The show is the ‘Grand Finale’ to the classic car season, where car and motorcycle clubs show of their cherished vehicles before they are put away for the winter.

Classic Motor Show is the only event that brings together the full cross section of the classic car movement incorporating a myriad of car club marques and models, restoration companies, dealers, services, suppliers, auction, the UK’s biggest indoor Autojumble, motorsport, celebrities and live features.

Compared to other localised Classic Motor Shows we have visitors from across the UK, Ireland and beyond the English Channel.

The show is a cornerstone for 'active' club members, recognized as a trusted brand, it has a strong connection with the classic car community with many clubs attending for many of its 40 years. It's a must-attend spectacle, rich in motoring heritage and nostalgia and unites passions, powerful emotions, and precious memories, making it an essential part of every enthusiast's calendar.

The show caters for all things classic motoring and endeavours to support the industry in keeping the history and heritage of classic and vintage vehicles alive. Whether it’s joining a club, purchasing a new pride and joy, sourcing those elusive spare parts for a restoration project, learning new restoration skills, coming face-to-face with motoring celebrities or simply immersing yourself in the classic car community and seeing beautiful cars close up, the show aims to bring all this and more to enthusiasts each year.
