Riviera Classic Car Show
On 27th July 2025
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
- Sights and smells - Cannot beat the smell and sound of a steam locomotive, a very scenic ride firstly along the beach, then along the river Dart. A couple of hours in Dartmouth then all aboard for trip back.
- Fantastic trip - Booked this trip beforehand due to current circumstances. Good pricing, beautiful scenery on the journey, easy to get off & get the ferry straight over. Cruise down the river was also lovely.
- Brilliant! - We had to write to tell you what a thoroughly enjoyable trip we had on your "Steam Train & Cruise". The train was brilliant and the cruise was a revelation. We will be back to experience it again. Thank you.
