Sunday 20 September 2026 | Hinckley Town Centre

Hinckley Motor Show is celebrating its 15th anniversary with an incredible line-up of vehicles, live entertainment, emergency service displays, town-centre businesses and, subject to conditions, a very special RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF) Spitfire flypast.

The show has reached full capacity, with 700 vehicles registered to take part, making this our biggest vehicle display yet. Registration is now closed and we are no longer accepting pre-registration requests.

This year’s theme is “Motoring Through the Ages”, with an incredible variety of classic and specialist vehicles expected across Hinckley town centre – from historic classics and superbikes to replicas, kit cars and supercars.

✈️ SPECIAL FLYPAST UPDATE

The latest information from the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight is that a Spitfire is currently scheduled to fly over Hinckley town centre at approximately 2.05pm.

The aircraft will be either MK V Spitfire AB910 or MK XVI Spitfire TE311, subject to aircraft availability.

Please remember that the flypast remains subject to weather, aircraft availability and operational conditions, and timings or aircraft may change.

🚫 NO DRONES ARE PERMITTED AT ANY TIME DURING THE EVENT.
The operation of a drone could pose a serious safety risk to the aircraft, its crew and people on the ground.

🎶 MORE THAN JUST A MOTOR SHOW

Hinckley Motor Show is a community celebration, and there is plenty happening beyond the vehicles.

Enjoy live music and entertainment with Fosse 107 Radio throughout the day, including performances at the Argents Mead Bandstand from:

Stanley Opera
Talent Takeover
Take It From The Top
Baton Rouge House Band

There will also be live music at The Clarence in Market Place, alongside displays and activities from the Police, Fire and Search and Rescue services.

And don't forget to explore Hinckley town centre, with shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants open and ready to welcome visitors throughout the day.

🏆 The Best Car in Show and other awards will be presented around 2pm (after the flypast), with anniversary entertainment and surprises taking place throughout the event.
