The Rotary Club organises two shows each year for owners to display their precious vehicles which can then be admired by members of the public. All sorts of vehicles are on show, from cars and motor bikes to lorries, army vehicles and frequently a tractor, which proves extremely popular with children as they are allowed to climb on it.Our first show of the year is held in conjunction with the Royston May Day Fayre on May Day bank holiday. When the weather is fine (as it was in May 2022) there can be huge turnout and pre-booking is essential to get everyone in, despite the Town Hall car park being very large, having capacity for over two hundred cars. The date of the May Day show for 2023 was 1st May.The second show is held in conjunction with the Kite Festival, which is always the first Sunday in August and held on Therfield Heath in Royston. For this show we arrange a display area for classic vehicles at the rear of the kite flying arena so that there is plenty of space for all. This show attracts a wide variety of people in their classic vehicles where they can picnic, watch the kite flying and wander round the dozens of stalls and other attractions. The date of the show for 2023 is August 6th ***Click to see photos of previous shows - May Fayre 2023 and at Kite Festival 2017If you would like to display your vehicle at either of the forthcoming shows then

*** Special Note for 2023Good news, the Historic Vehicle Show at the Kite Festival will still be going ahead despite earlier doubts but we will not be allowed to use the same display area as we have for previous years. Instead we will be setting aside a space in the 'normal car' parking area, but you won’t be mixed in with non classic vehicles. We hope that this is only for this one year.
