About Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show 2026

The UK's biggest classic car show: club stands, restorations, autojumble and the live stage across the NEC halls.

The Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show is the UK's biggest classic car show. Every November it takes over seven halls at the NEC in Birmingham with more than 300 car clubs, over 450 specialist traders and around 600 classic cars for sale.

Club stands are the heart of the show, with owners' clubs competing to create the best themed displays. There's also a live stage, restoration demonstrations, the UK's biggest indoor autojumble and the Iconic Auctioneers sales running across the weekend.

For 2026 the show moves to 13–15 November so it no longer clashes with Remembrance Sunday.

Car clubs: 300+
