Carlisle Events has been family-owned and operated since day one in 1974.  With second-generation ownership in place since 2004 and multiple generations of guests passing through the gates for more than 50 years, it’s only fair that the events work to make the hobby easily and affordably available to the next generation of enthusiasts.

For more than 10 years, kids 12 and under have been admitted FREE.  Now, as those kids grow and others like them show an interest in the hobby, Carlisle Events is excited to announce a new youth/student ticket price point.  Starting with Spring Carlisle driven by Hemmings.com, April 23-27, and continuing thereafter, attendees ages 13–22 will be admitted for just $5. This deeply discounted price point, more than 50% off the regular spectator admission in most cases, is available for in-person ticket sales only, and the student must have a valid ID.

Kids and student admission pricing is just one of many great ways for the next generation to engage with the car show fun at Carlisle. Each event offers a kids' goody bag, cash grab, and the chance to vote for a Kids' Choice award. Additionally, all events make available a bus program for schools to make a Carlisle car show a field trip destination. Furthermore, a Carlisle Youth Initiative program has been developed. This program includes basic perks available across all shows, while select shows, such as the Carlisle Ford Nationals and Corvettes at Carlisle, offer unparalleled access to some of the top names in the hobby, private tours of car collections, tech talk sessions, exclusive unveilings, and more.

The automotive event season is up and running for the Carlisle team, having recently concluded its kick-off event, Auto Mania, at the Allentown Fairgrounds, as well as its first auction, the Lakeland Winter Collector Car Auction in Lakeland, Florida. Now, with full attention focused on events at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds, it’s the perfect opportunity to make plans to be part of some of the largest classic and collector car shows in the world.
