At 11:00 the show is open, offering visitors the chance to view a stunning range of vehicles, each with its own history and character.
One of the day’s exciting moments will be the arrival of the Vespa Club of Ireland, who will join us with their collection of vintage motor scooters. It’s always a crowd favourite!
Throughout the day, guests can enjoy a relaxed pace - taking in the vehicles, chatting with owners, and soaking up the passion that brings the classic car community together.
Of course, no car show would be complete without a little healthy competition.
From 14:00, a panel of judges will begin the task of selecting the very best vehicles on display, awarding trophies to ‘Car of the Show’ and ‘Car of the Show Runner-up’.
Throughout the afternoon, drivers will be able to vote for their favourite vehicle in the ‘My Dream Car’ category, adding a personal touch to the day’s celebrations.
All the winners will be announced at 16:00, with the presentation of Carole Nash trophies marking the achievement of some truly exceptional vehicles.
While the vehicles are at the heart of the event, it’s the people who make the day truly special.
From long-time collectors to first-time visitors, the show is a chance to connect over a shared love of motoring. Whether you’re admiring a rare classic, reminiscing about cars from your past, or simply enjoying the day out, there’s something for everyone.
Join us for a memorable day at the Malahide Classic & Vintage Motor Show sponsored by Carole Nash on Sunday 17th May 2026.
