The next Normous Newark Autojumble takes place on Sunday, August 9, 2026, and this one comes with an added attraction for scooter fans. The event will also host the Ford & Scooter Classic Day, with riders of scooters over 15 years old getting into the event free of charge.

Held at Newark Showground in Nottinghamshire, Normous Newark is already well known as one of the biggest and busiest autojumble events in the calendar, attracting traders, collectors, restorers and enthusiasts looking for parts, projects, tools, memorabilia and those hard-to-find garage treasures.

For scooterists, the August event offers an ideal excuse to get the machine out, enjoy a ride to Newark and spend the day among like-minded enthusiasts. Whether you ride a Lambretta, Vespa, classic geared scooter or another period machine, the Ford & Scooter Classic Day is designed to give classic scooter owners a proper presence at the event.

The offer is simple: drivers of Ford cars over 20 years old and riders of scooters over 15 years old get in free.

That makes it a great opportunity for clubs, groups and solo riders to make a day of it. Arrive on your scooter, meet other enthusiasts, browse the autojumble, hunt for parts, enjoy the display atmosphere and help create a strong scooter turnout at Newark.

With classic scooters continuing to enjoy a loyal following across the UK, the event is expected to appeal to riders who enjoy the practical side of ownership as much as the social scene. From restoration parts and accessories to tools, spares and period items, the autojumble could prove especially useful for anyone keeping an older scooter on the road.

Normous Newark Autojumble and Ford & Scooter Classic Day takes place on Sunday, August 9, 2026, at Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire.

Scooter riders with machines over 15 years old can enter free, making it a perfect summer ride-out for classic scooter fans.
