WE’RE RUNNING OUR MONTHLY EVENT IN OUR WINTER LOCATION (STURMINSTER NEWTON STATION ROAD CAR PARK DT10 1BN) THIS COMING SATURDAY FROM 9-12.

We are moving the event to our winter location this time. The Recreation Ground is now too wet to sustain the vehicles without damage.
 
It is much smaller and can only take about 120 vehicles. Unfortunately we will have to turn people away once it is full.

The turnout last time was brilliant again, in spite of the weather.
 
We had an amazing collection of vehicles from the 60s, 70s and 80s, as well as the vintage and classics. We also had a great turnout of some stunning bikes of all eras.

Just a reminder that there’s no need to book, no charge to attend, and parking in the town is free for the day.
 
You must ensure that you are insured, that your vehicle is safe and that you stay close to it if it has protrusions or access to features that may cause injury to members of the public ( particularly children).
 
While you are at the event, please have a look at some of our great and distinctive shops, we have our brilliant 1855 craft and artisan shop just round the corner from the event, which has beautiful products from over 100 local businesses. They have some lovely products that are ideal for Christmas presents.
 
We also have a local craft market in the Exchange Arts and Community Centre which is near to the main car park.
