This is a fun drive for all makes of classic cars.

Participants can mix and match – static appearance at start or finish, optional drive, clear instructions with map so you can vary. Route length 85 miles.

We meet from 9 am at Church Fields car park (next to the St Mary’s church on High Street) and you are invited to follow a scenic route (directions and map provided).

This year to Helmsley.

After this social and refreshment break, you will return back to the Stables Lane Community Park so you can display your cars, chat with your pals, and relax.

The Wimbledon Mens’ Finals will be beamed onto a large outdoor screen in the park. No formalities so you can depart by about 5pm with happy memories of another day spent with your car in beautiful Yorkshire.

The village is proud of its ‘NEW’ Stables Lane Community Park for people of all ages.

Your modest contribution over the last 10 years has helped to get the park established. Now visitors can enjoy picnic tables, covered shelters, gymnastic equipment, pathways, trees and wild flowers. Parents love to bring their children to play safely on the play equipment.

There will be a voluntary collection in support of the park.

To make it a worthwhile there needs 25 - 30 characters on display.

Time is required to build the map, have it printed and deliver it to the shops by 1st July.

The maps and numbers will be delivered to the entrants by 3rd July.
The characters go up from 8th to 14thJuly.

If you are intending to display a character, please submit your entry by 31st May.

The theme this year is "Builder's Choice" - whatever family friendly subject you are inspired to create. 😃

UPDATE

Open Gardens wont be part of the festival this year. Sorry for any disappointment caused.

The team at Boston Spa in Bloom are getting busy preparing for our summer displays and in particular to the village festival weekend (July 10-12th 2026). We will be offering our usual drinks and cakes in the village hall and our ever popular ‘Open Gardens’ event!

We can’t do it without you and need help with this!

Are you a keen gardener? Could you or someone you know offer to open your garden to visitors between 12 noon and 4pm on Sunday 12th July?

It doesn’t need to be a big garden as small, quirky or classic are all of interest. If you might be interested in taking part in this community event please do get in touch with me, Jeanette, at

Thank you!

The Trail will cover Boston Spa, Clifford & Thorp Arch.

Classic Car Festival Success.

Beautiful summer weather greeted the classic car enthusiasts at the Boston Spa Festival on Sunday 13th July. About 50 historic and colourful cars arrived in Stables Lane Community Park and were greeted by local residents.

After a scenic run via Ripon Market and the moors above Pateley Bridge they returned to the park and were displayed again, next to the large outdoor screen, sponsored by SALT Boston Spa which was featuring the men’s’ Wimbledon Final.

Everyone enjoyed the event and the car owners donated £440 towards more facilities for the park.

Thanks to everyone including the Rotary Club members, the parish council members, and other volunteers for their help in making it a success.

Thank you to Keith Jackson who has organised and coordinated this event for the festival since it started. 👏👏👏
