BVAC Classic, Thirlestane Castle, Lauder

BVAC Classic, Thirlestane Castle, Lauder, Sunday 18 June

The Borders Vintage Automobile Club, who organise the event, anticipate that the Festival will once again attract a wonderful display of 1,000 veteran, vintage and classic cars as well as vintage truck, military vehicle and classic motorcycle displays, for those who prefer two wheels!

2023 also marks a number of special automotive birthday milestones - 205 (40th)  & 306 (30th), to name but two, and the show looks forward to celebrating a selection of anniversary marks.

Beyond the extensive automotive displays, there will be plenty for all the family to see and do. There will be a retail area, artisan food and drink hall, children’s play area and activities, arena stunt display’s, pipe band shows  and plenty of wonderful food and drink vendors to keep visitors fuelled throughout the day!

In addition, the Sporting Bears will be in attendance, offering visitors the chance to enjoy ’dream rides’ in their fabulous range of exotic cars, in exchange for a modest donation to their children’s charity.

New for this year will be the introduction of a live rally display, meaning visitors will be able to enjoy the wonderful sight and sound of live motorsport action. More details will be announced on this very soon!
