Show Field Owners Guide 2026

A Message from Our Founder

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 2026 Ayrburn Classic. Only in its second year, the event is already building impressively on the foundations we laid last year, moving with confidence toward becoming a truly world-class celebration of automotive excellence.

This year, we have refined the format to feature significantly more cars on display and far greater movement throughout the breathtaking Ayrburn grounds. To see these magnificent vehicles positioned so beautifully within the landscape is a privilege in itself - but when paired with the sound and scent of them gliding gracefully through the precinct, we promise nothing short of a full sensory experience.

Our show area has expanded considerably, as has our food and drink offering with the opening of ‘Billy’s’ – our newest restaurant. Notably, the Winton design team has shaped the grounds with the Ayrburn Classic front of mind. Framed by the Southern Alps, there is surely no finer place to showcase such a remarkable assembly of automobiles.

As we strive to position the Ayrburn Classic alongside the great motoring events of the world - Goodwood and Pebble Beach among them - we remain deeply grateful for the support of our exhibitors, sponsors, car owners and motoring enthusists. I am confident that the dedicated and talented team behind the Ayrburn Classic will place New Zealand firmly on the global stage of elite automotive showcases, creating an event we can all take immense pride in for many years to come.

I look forward to seeing you there.

CEO
