Monthly Car Events at Car Barn Beamish
Car Barn Beamish, the home of Sports, Prestige and Classic cars in the North East, are hosting our fourth year of monthly car meets in 2025. Taking place outside our showroom on the Red Row Estate in County Durham, our meets attract hundreds of cars and thousands of guests. 100% free to attend, and supported by the Black Horse Beamish and Aston Workshop, the Car Barn Drivers’ Club takes place on Thursday evenings between April and September.

For 2025, our car meets have evolved. Each meet (with the exception of The Car Barn Trophy) will be themed around a nation known for their own unique car culture. As always, all cars are welcome to all events; the difference this time is that members with cars from each meet’s nation will be invited to park in the main display area at the top of the field. This way, we can really celebrate the individual car culture of each nation, while ensuring we still have a great selection of cars in the Drivers’ Club members parking area.
