Classic Cars on the Prom

Classic Cars on the Prom takes place every Sunday from April to September and features an ever changing line up of vehicles dating from 1915 up to the early 80’s.

The event takes place on West Overcliff Promenade, running up alongside the Bournemouth International Centre, from 4.00pm until 6.30pm.

Classic Cars on the Prom starts on Sunday 21st April 2019 and runs until Sunday 22nd September inclusive in Bournemouth apart from the dates below when the event will take place on Christchurch Quay or at Highcliffe Castle, not in Bournemouth. This is due to other seafront activities taking place in Bournemouth:



CHRISTCHURCH QUAY: 11:00am-5:00pm
(Christchurch Quay, Christchurch, Quay Road, Christchurch BH23 1BY)
14th April
30th June
1st September
29th September

HIGHCLIFFE CASTLE: 11:00am-4:00pm
(Rothesay Drive, Highcliffe BH23 4LE)
28th July

The Bournemouth date for 4th August is also cancelled.

Admission is free for eligible vehicles, those dating between 1915 and before August 1983, and you can turn up at anytime from 4.00pm. However please note that space is limited so it’s on a first come, first served basis. That said, the display normally attracts between 70 and 130 vehicles each week.

Classic Cars on the Prom is free to spectators and is a great opportunity to see some classic cars up close and chat with their owners.

The event is subject to weather and other seafront activities. You are advised to check the social media pages prior to travelling:
