Do you like cars? Got a hankering to see something with a bit of style? Why not come along to our show, take a peek at all sorts of makes and models from years gone by, have a little wallow in nostalgia and help two very worthy charities at the same time.
A “perfick” family day out in the Kent countryside with a warm, friendly atmosphere, featuring pre-1990 makes and models of classic vehicles
with a new “80’s zone” (pre-booked only).
The venue has ample public car parking and gates open at 9.00 am. An estimated 900+ classic vehicles are expected at this year`s show, making it one of Kent’s most popular annual events. This exclusive location was used in the making of
Yorkshire Television`s well-known series
“The Darling Buds of May”
and is the only time that the farm is open to the public.
This year`s show will include: Pop Larkin`s yellow Rolls Royce, Kent Fire and Rescue demonstration (their specialised web page is here),
The Woodchurch Morris Men, traditional childrens` rides, a classic baby carriage display, auto-jumble and craft stalls, food for all tastes, a visit by the
Kent Air Ambulance helicopter (operational circumstances permitting), plus a licensed bar. Throughout the day there will be arena displays of exhibitors` vehicles
with a live commentary.
