Once again we have had close to our maximum of 300 field entries, with a fantastic selection of cars to look forward to. One of my favourites is this 1957 Dodge pickup, found after being left forgotten for nearly 40 years, this flathead side vale 6 cylinder, both looks and sound superb.

Make a date to join us at Classics over Sands, in beautiful Grange over Sands on Sunday 9th August. Whilst we will shortly be closing entries, you can apply to join our waiting list, as we often have a number of entries who are unable to make the show

2025 was a bumper year for the charities supported by Classics over Sands, with national charity, Alzheimer’s UK and local charity Growing Well sharing £8100!  Our local Scout Group who are great supporters of the show, helping with parking and logistics benefited from £1150, with Cumbria Wildlife receiving a £750 donation.  In 2025, we passed the running of our raffle to Grange Pre-school, who did an amazing job, raising a massive £400.

We will be announcing our charity support for our 2026 show, in the next few days. Classics over Sands in 2026 will be held on SUNDAY 9th AUGUST.
