Castle Classics RETURNS this Saturday!

Newcastle-under-Lyme town centre will come alive this Saturday (28th March) as Castle Classics returns for its popular spring edition.

Delivered by Newcastle-under-Lyme BID and supported by The Red Haired Stokie, Envy Autos Ltd and 6 Towns Radio, the event will see the Ironmarket and High Street transformed into a showcase of motoring heritage, bringing together vehicle owners, enthusiasts and visitors from across Staffordshire and beyond.

Around 100 retro and vintage vehicles will be on display, spanning more than a century of automotive history. From early 1900s models through to modern classics of the 1990s and early 2000s, the event offers a diverse and visually striking line-up set in the heart of the town centre.

Castle Classics is a free, family friendly daytime event, designed to boost footfall and encourage visitors to explore Newcastle-under-Lyme’s retail, hospitality and independent business offer while enjoying the displays.

Vehicles will be judged across five categories: Best in Show, Show & Shine, Most Unique, Best Classic and Best Retro, with awards presented from the 6 Towns Radio stage on the Ironmarket at 2:30pm.

Charl Pearce, Newcastle-under-Lyme BID Manager, said:

“Castle Classics has quickly established itself as a key date in our events calendar. It creates a strong visual presence in the town centre and attracts a wide audience, from dedicated collectors to families enjoying a day out. Events like this play an important role in driving footfall and showcasing Newcastle-under-Lyme as a welcoming and vibrant place to visit.”

Exhibitor spaces for this weekend’s event are now fully booked. Those interested in taking part in the next Castle Classics can sign up for the autumn edition taking place on Saturday 24th October 2026 - https://bit.ly/4dFxEYc
