2023

Our fourth Classic Vehicle Show took place on Saturday 9th September 2023.

Rooster and Churnet Sound provided music and Biddulph Local People’s Group supplied refreshments.

Prizes were awarded for the best vehicles in each category, with ‘Best in Show’ awarded to Mr Michael Clarke with his 1965 Sunbeam Tiger.

2022

Our third Classic Vehicle Show took place on Saturday 10 September 2022. Biddulph Local People’s Group ran the vintage tea tent again, but there was no music following the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II two days previously – the event took place with a more solemn tone, giving the community chance to come together and reflect.

Prizes were awarded for the best vehicles in each category, with the ‘Best in Show’ cup awarded to John Eardley for his Jaguar S Type, 1965.

A big thank you to John Gibson for judging.

Here’s some photos and feedback:

2021

Following a break in 2020 due to Covid-19 restrictions, our second Classic Vehicle Show took place on Saturday 11 September 2021.

Biddulph Local People’s Group ran a vintage tea tent, live music was provided by local band Rooster and Churnet Sound provided music.
