Cars at the Castle Poster

The annual Hertford Town Council community event, ‘Cars at the Castle’ will take place on Sunday 6th June from 12noon to 4pm.

This family friendly free car show will have hot and cold food concessions and a bar.

The cars will be exhibited on the lawn, with Hertford Castle as their backdrop. Hertford Castle will be closed to the public on this occasion, but with over 35 cars to look at there will still be plenty to see.

The range of vehicles on the day will include Porsche, Ford, Triumph, Lotus, Cadillac, and Toyota amongst others, all of varying ages.

During the event, the Mayor of Hertford, Cllr Bob Deering, will be judging and awarding trophies to the car owners. The categories include best paint work, best interior, best post 1970 car, best pre-1970 car, best British and best foreign car.

Councillor Bob Deering, Mayor of Hertford said: "I had the honour of judging the cars the last time we held Cars at the Castle, so I know from first-hand experience that it is a great event. We get a terrific range of vehicles and some very nice owners and car enthusiasts too. It is a really enjoyable afternoon so do come along if you can".
