The Carlisle PA Fairgrounds have a long and storied history.  From its first fair in 1946 to its first car event in 1974 and everything since (and in between), the spacious grounds and buildings have played a role in entertaining millions upon millions of guests.  As 2021 commences, Carlisle Productions is pleased to announce that the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds, in addition to hosting 10+ Carlisle Events car shows, will host a number of events for automotive, motorcycle, powersports and outdoor enthusiasts of anything on wheels!

In addition to events by its resident promoter, Carlisle Events, five complementing events are on the schedule for 2021. The Central PA Porsche Club, regional affiliate of the Porsche Club of America will be presenting the Porsche car show and swap meet on May 1. The event includes a Showfield of Porsche vehicles and a swap meet, where parts, merchandise and collectibles will be for sale.  July welcomes the All-Breeds Jeep show July 24-25, brought to Carlisle by PA Jeeps!  All Jeep breeds are welcome for a Showfield that will be flanked by vendors, rock crawling and more.

Two wheels and powersports return to the Carlisle Fairgrounds brought to you by Progressive Insurance. Enthusiasts of all things motorcycle, powersports and related interests will enjoy the Progressive International Motorcycle Show Outdoors, September 10-12. October welcomes back our friends from Camping World RV for a two-week RV sales event October 16-31. The final event scheduled at this time is a “season ending” Race Car Swap Meet on November 6.

Rental options ARE NOT limited to only automotive offerings.  There will be (and have been) yard sales, fireworks, 5K runs and other community/social events like touch a truck and more.  The sheer size and versatility of the facility make hosting an event in Carlisle nearly turn-key for all involved.

“We are excited to welcome more promoters to our automotive hometown at the Carlisle Fairgrounds,” said Ed Scholly, director of Business and Event Development.  “The automotive, motorcycle and RV events scheduled this year will complement Carlisle Events portfolio of events for similar enthusiasts,” continued Scholly.  Along with Carlisle Expo Center events, we are excited to continue making the great community of Carlisle a destination! “
