We are delighted to be taking part in the 2022 Ilkeston Classic Car Show, occupying our usual position on the Market Place with a new car display on Sunday 14th of August.
On our stand this year will be the All New Toyota AYGO X, 2 GR Supra’s, GR Yaris and a MK1 Hilux!
At least 200 cars are expected to turn out on the day and the weather is looking good at the moment which is an added bonus
A town’s popular classic car show is set to roar back into life this summer having been cancelled the last two years because of the Covid pandemic.
The Ilkeston Heritage and Classic Vehicle Show will hit the road on Sunday, August 14 bringing the sights and sounds of yesteryear to the town centre.
This will 10 years since the first show, filling the Market Place and surrounding streets with colourful memories and attracting exhibitors and visitors from across the country.
Before then it had grown rapidly over seven years to attract thousands of visitors of all ages to make it the biggest one day event in the town.
Families have wandered around hundred of classic and sports cars, motorbikes and scooters, lorries, buses, tractors and steam engines enjoying chats with proud owners about their history.
So well-liked is the show that when there was a preliminary mention on Facebook the item attracted 10,000 views in a day.
Ian Viles, chief executive of Erewash Partnership, said: “We are thrilled at the prospect of putting on the car show again and providing an entertaining day out for past attendees as well as new ones which we hope will boost spirits after a difficult time
“Once we are confident that we have received enough support we will then make exhibitors tickets available to book online. We look forward to welcoming people to what we hope will be a great day.”
We look forward to seeing each and every car that is on display. Make sure you pop down to our stand and say hello!
