Step back in time at The Hart Classics Transport Show

DATE

April 22, 2026

Gareth Williams invites you to gear up for a great day out at the volunteer-run Hart Classics Transport Show on Sunday 21 June 2026.

After raising more than £7,000 for the Hants and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance in 2024 and 2025, The Hart Classics Transport Show returns at a new venue – the grounds of the Elvetham Hotel, between Fleet and Hartley Wintney.

The spacious site features a firm, riverside field with plenty of room for classic cars, motorcycles, trade stands and food vendors.

On the day, visitors can enjoy live music, a variety of food and drink options and a licensed bar, while little ones can have fun in the children’s play area, featuring small fairground-style attractions.

The main attraction is the display of classic vehicles – and with more than 250 cars and motorcycles attending last year, a similarly strong turnout is expected for the 2026 event.

Vehicles are grouped into age-based classes, while clubs are accommodated so that members can display together where possible.

On the day, judges award trophies for the best car and motorcycle in each class, alongside special prizes including Best in Show, Ladies’ Choice and Spirit of Motoring.

Organisers expect a wide range of exhibits, from pre-World War Two models to modern classics and supercars, as well as commercial and agricultural vehicles.

All profits go to charity, supporting the Hants and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance, which provides a vital emergency service across the region.

Cars and their passengers can enter the site from 8am, with the public admitted from 10am. The event ends after judging at 4pm.

Cars, motorbikes and commercial vehicles with driver and one passenger are charged £10 plus a £1.20 booking fee. Other visitors £5, children under 12 free. Visitor parking is free.
