****THE SIGNAL BRIEF**  
  
****What’s new:** Visitors will vote for their favourite vehicle in a new People’s Choice category at Castle Classics.  
  
****Worth knowing:** The show is open to vehicles registered before 2006\. People’s Choice is an open category, so a car does not need perfect paintwork to win.  
  
****What’s next:** Stacks of Tyres and Mosschem have donated prizes for winning vehicles at the 24 October show.

Ironmarket will close to traffic and fill with classic and retro vehicles when Castle Classics returns to Newcastle-under-Lyme on 24 October 2026.

The popular event is delivered by Newcastle-under-Lyme BID in partnership with The Red Haired Stokie and 6 Towns Radio.

Cars registered before 2006 are welcome, giving owners of vehicles more than 20 years old the chance to take part. While the cars line the street, the town centre’s shops, cafés and pubs will be open for visitors to enjoy throughout the day.

This year brings a new reason to enter. The People’s Choice award will be decided by visitors to the show, and every vehicle is in with a chance. A car might win people over because it is cool, cute or unlike anything else on Ironmarket. Perfect paintwork is not required.
