Riviera Classic Car Show
On 21st July 2024
The display of fabulous vehicles is complemented by stage entertainment through the day, food outlets, a craft marquee and licensed bar. This is a unique event which has developed its own very special relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Such is its popularity that exhibitors bring their vehicles from over much of England, and bookings for spaces are full months in advance. Some entries are individuals, whilst there are also clubs taking their own stand spaces. The range of vehicles is quite something to behold! There are a few rare examples from the early part of the 1900s, lots of classics from the 50s to 70s or even a bit later. There’s also a sprinkling of modern customs and supercars, commercial vehicles, scooters and motorbikes.
The show site is right at the heart of one of the most popular and busiest parts of Torbay and is always enjoyed by families on holiday as well as locals who make a point of visiting every year. With so much to see and do, it’s a great day out for all the family.
Reviews
- Stunning views - The views from the boat were stunning and the handy (and hilarious) commentary by the crew helped point out things of local interest. Loved it :)
- An enjoyable day! - Had a wonderful day riding on the steam railway and a boat trip along the River Dart. Excellent scenery along the coast. The ferry was quick and efficient.
- Chugging along! - The cruise along the River Dart was delightful and the witty commentary was also very informative. The last leg on the steam train was fantastic - chugging along past the beautiful beaches with children waving to you from the sands. Just priceless! We had the most amazing day, the itinerary is done with military precision and is therefore relaxing and exciting - we really loved it. This has got to be a "must do" trip!
