Come join Pangbourne College’s Classic Car Show 2023

The annual Pangbourne College Classic Car Show makes its return in June.

On Saturday, June 3, the whole community are welcome to see the spectacular array of classic cars.

And the Royal Air Force (RAF) Battle of Britain Memorial Spitfire Flight is also scheduled to make a flypast.

Hosted at Pangbourne College, spectators will get to enjoy a range of classic cars, scooters and motorbikes.

“This fantastic community event is back and bigger than ever,” said show organiser Tom Cheney.

“We’re expecting in excess of 300 cars to be on display. We also welcome the Roy Bailey Big Band from Goring who will be playing for our visitors.”

“I’m also excited to announce that following last year’s flyover by the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Lancaster Bomber, we can confirm that this year we will have a fly past from the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Spitfire, which will be a sight not to miss.

“The flight commemorates all those who have lost their lives serving in the RAF, or its predecessor the Royal Flying Corps.”

All proceeds made from this year’s show will go to Footsteps Foundation, a local charity supporting children with neurological issues, and also the Pangbourne College Community Fund which aims to support projects, activities or educational opportunities for children and young adults in the local area.

Mr Cheney added: “This year, we are supported by local businesses PR Motors, Aston Martin Reading and Lamborghini Pangbourne, who plan to bring a selection of new cars for spectators to look at and sit inside.

“Kingdom Coffee will provide refreshments, with all profits donated to the charities.”

Pangbourne College pupils who are involved in the ‘heritage engineering’ programme will also be showcasing the two cars they are currently working on: ‘The Rickman Ranger’ and ‘Bond Equip’.

Sporting Bears will also be at the show to offer passenger rides in stunning classic cars.

The event will be run from 10am to 3.45pm. Tickets can be purchased in advance or on the day.

Food and refreshments will be available to purchase and spectators are also welcome to bring their own picnics.
