Fall Carlisle celebrates 40 years

Carlisle Events is in the midst of its 40th Anniversary season and the upcoming Fall Carlisle is the show where it all began in 1974.

This year’s Fall Carlisle runs Oct. 1-5 at the Carlisle, Pa. Fairgrounds and this time around, everyone will step into the proverbial way-back machine as charter vendors are recognized and classic cars are showcased.

The weekend not only hosts a swap meet, car corral and car auction backed by Carlisle Auctions, this year it will serve as the launching point for special dinner on Friday, an automotive timeline of cars from 1974-2014 throughout the weekend in Building G, which in 1974 was still a tractor dealership, and on Saturday, a special celebration with vendors, guests, ownership and the local community.

About 100,000 guests will flock to the event to buy, sell and trade all things automotive. The 8,100 spaces that make up the grounds will be filled with collectibles, new old stock items, aftermarket upgrades and original pieces of automotive history.
