The joys of the British weather!

Thanks so much for all your lovely messages and support following the postponement of the Classic & Retro Show last Sunday - hugely appreciated after a pretty rubbish day :)

I'm delighted to confirm that we have a new date...

The show will now take place on Sunday 20th August.

If the new date doesn't work for you, please email [email protected] and I'll happily refund your ticket, but I'm hoping to see many of you in August at beautiful Holdenby House.

All pre-booked exhibitors, Club and visitors via our website should have received a mailer with the same details. Anyone who booked via an external site, please just send me an email.

Thanks!

** EVENT POSTPONED DUE TO ADVERSE WEATHER **

We are so disappointed to be writing this post.

We have had to take the difficult decision to postpone tomorrow’s Classic & Retro Show at Holdenby House.

The show field is already unsuitable for vehicles, due to the rain, and there are several more hours forecast. The entrance to the show field is a slight slope, which will become impossible to navigate by tomorrow.

Such a massive shame - we were so looking forward to our first show at this beautiful venue. We’ll share the alternative date as soon as we can!

Thanks so much for your understanding and so sorry again for the short notice.

Best wishes,

All at Classic Motor Events x

The perfect location, steeped in history, to show some beautiful vehicles!

It was between these Arches, that Cornet Joyce’s troops were drawn up when he came to take King Charles I from Holdenby in June 1647.
