A Car Show Worth Travelling to from Scotland, Cumbria & the North East

Corbridge’s location makes the Northumberland Classic & Performance Motor Show particularly well placed for enthusiasts travelling from both sides of the England-Scotland border.

The show regularly brings together enthusiasts from throughout the North East of England, while its Northumberland location provides an attractive summer destination for owners travelling from Edinburgh, Glasgow, the Scottish Borders, Carlisle, Cumbria and the Lake District.

For clubs planning a summer road trip, the combination of Saturday night camping and Sunday’s motor show provides the opportunity to turn the event into a full motoring weekend rather than simply travelling to and from the show in a single day.

Exhibit Your Car or Motorcycle at the Northumberland Motor Show

The show is created around the vehicle owners who bring their cars, motorcycles and specialist vehicles to Corbridge, and private owners are warmly invited to exhibit.

You do not need to belong to a car club to take part. Individual exhibitors can book their vehicle into the appropriate display category and enjoy the day as part of the show.

Exhibitor categories include classic cars, modern classics, modified cars, custom cars, performance cars, supercars, hypercars, motorsport vehicles, motorcycles, 4x4s and commercial vehicles.

Traditional classic entries are generally welcomed for appropriate pre-2010 vehicles, while modified, performance, supercar, hypercar, motorsport and motorcycle entries can include vehicles of any age where appropriate to the display category.

Discounted advance exhibitor bookings for Sunday 15th August 2027 will open soon.

Show Arena, Vehicle Parades & Live Commentary

The main show arena brings selected vehicles out from the static displays throughout the day for parades, interviews and commentary.

It gives visitors the opportunity to discover the stories behind unusual classics, significant historic vehicles, modified builds, performance cars, motorcycles and specialist exhibits while providing owners with the chance to showcase their vehicle to the wider audience.
