Now in its sixth year, organised by Oxford Isis Rotary Club Trust Fund, the Cowley Classic Car Show is Oxford's major Charity car event.

 

1. Why a car show?

We run our car show because cars have made an important contribution to the development of Oxford and its surrounding areas.not least Cowley where William Morris started car production. Hence the name of our show. The cars, commercial vehicles and motor bikes on display are provided by their owners for the public to enjoy. There is no entry fee for vehicles - we just ask for a contribution to the charities supported by Oxford Isis Rotary Club.

2. Our chosen charities.

Each year all proceeds from the show go to charity. As the show is organised by Rotary volunteers, costs are kept to a minimum. We have a headline charity which receives most of the funds raised, with the remainder split between local and international charities.

In past years we have raised money for Maggies Cancer Centre and the Air Ambulance.

This year the headline charity will be ROSY - Respite nursing for Oxfordshire's Sick Youngsters.

3 Cowley Classic Cars

Whilst many cars at the show have a connection to vehicle production in Oxfordshire, we don't have any restrictions on the vehicles on display. Irrespective of make and age, any car commercial vehicle and motor bike is welcome. This makes for a fantastic range of vehicles to see ranging from some of the first motor vehicles ever built right up to current vehicles. Click here for photos of last year's show.

 

4. A family day out

The show is intended to appeal to all the family and to be a fun day out. So as well as over 200 vehicles to see there is food and drink, trade stands selling a wide range of goods, a petting zoo, free vintage bus rides, children's entertainment and much more.
