The Sports Car Show

  • Sun 06 Jul 2025

  • 10AM - 4PM

A new event - the perfect place for Petrol Heads to show off the modern, the fast and the slick.

Classic doesn't have to mean Vintage.....


Sometimes, its good to mix the old with the new.

We're doing exactly that at this brand new event - the Stow Maries Sports Car Show.

We will welcome hundreds of your favourite motors, from clubs all over the region - but this time, its not for the vintage drivers.

Not this time.

Working in partnership with FD Racing, we'll be setting a new trend with all the very best in Mods, conversions and Performance fast movers.

Nissan, Mitsubishi, Ford. We'll have them all.

If you would like to participate, please drop an e-mail to info@stowmaries.org.uk. Places are limited!

All Drivers must register their vehicles in advance, and this is done by downloading a form and sending it to us with at least one Hi Res image of the vehicle you wish to exhibit.

If you would like a trader stand, please check the information on this form.
