The motor show is an important part of the Lavenham calendar, and in 2017 it was re-launched as ‘Lavenham Classics’ where it attracted both a good crowd and lots of sunshine.

Finding someone to run the event in 2023 has proven more difficult than expected. Watch this space for an update.

Past year’s event news

The 2020 event, despite the restrictions of being Covid compliant and the usual uncertainties concerning Bank Holiday weather, proved to be a resounding success.
Hosted for the fourth year running on August Bank Holiday Sunday, a limited number of (140) cars were displayed, Lavenham retailers sold food and refreshments, the sun made an appearance and the rain stayed away!

Over £2,000 was raised for local charities.

In 2019, the fantastic sum of over £1,200 was raised from donations on the day bringing this year’s total amount raised to almost £3,000. Double that raised last year and well in excess of the target of £2,000.
