All display vehicles are included in the vehicle judging and awards process which will be overseen by experienced vehicle commentator Les Clayton and judge Peter Fleming. Peter is a previous winner of the Isle of Man TT and also lead the race twice before having engine failures and brings a wealth of experience with classic cars and motorcycles. Les and Peter will present awards across all vehicle categories and culminating in the Car of the Show awards.

The vehicle concours is located in the event arena and provides a much-loved feature of the event. Andy will interview owners regarding their restoration projects and vehicle stories and provide interactive entertainment throughout the event. If you have an interesting vehicle or a story behind it, feel free to let Les know and he may just arrange for you to be interviewed!

To participate in the judging, owners should listen out for their category to be called and then make their way into the arena. The winners of each category are then asked to come back into the arena for the Car of the Show judging and awards at the end of the event.

Each vehicle exhibitor entering the arena for judging is eligible to receive a unique and complementary commemorative plaque.
