February
24-26
LONDON CLASSIC CAR SHOW Olympia, London. The London Classic Car Show is making a welcome return to prestigious Olympia in Kensington, West London in 2023. Staged between February 24-26 and entering its ninth year, the capital’s premier celebration of automotive culture and history will again be the must-attend season-opener to the year’s flourishing classic car scene for all classic car owners, collectors, experts and enthusiasts.
Olympia is steeped in motoring history having hosted blue-riband automotive shows for more than a century. The spectacular Grand Hall was home to the International Motor Exhibition from 1905 to 1936 and has accommodated an array of similarly distinguished car-themed events ever since… most recently The London Classic Car Show in 2020. With restrictions on indoor venues, the show was forced to innovate with an inspired move to a temporary new outdoor venue in Syon Park in June 2021… but now returns to its traditional February fixture under Olympia’s magnificent Victorian barrel-vaulted roof. As ever, The London Classic Car Show will boast hundreds of the world’s finest cars from yesteryear as well as celebrity interviews on the main stage plus a host of other dazzling highlights.
Two special displays have already been confirmed for February – the first will honour 60 years of the evergreen Porsche 911, the second will put the spotlight on barn-finds and survivors. The latter will provide a fascinating insight into the uncovering and restoration of recently discovered relics – the hidden motoring treasures we hanker after and the subtle differences, at first blush, between 'worth the effort', 'worth a fortune' and 'worth leaving alone'.
A number of equally outstanding features will be announced in the coming weeks. These will include dedicated displays to excite motor sport fans as well as exhibits and hotly debated panel website.
