The Fleet Lions Club has announced the 39th Fleet Lions Classic Motorcycle Run and Concours will take place in Fleet, Hampshire, on Monday, May 4, 2026. The event will be held at The Key car park in Elvetham Heath and is a major regional gathering for classic and vintage motorcycle enthusiasts.

Organisers expect more than 200 classic and vintage motorcycles to take part, including models dating from the early 1900s. Riders typically set off on the group run at about 11:00am and return to the display area by around 2:15pm, when Concours d’Elegance judging of condition and restoration begins.

Proceeds from entry fees and public donations are used to raise funds for local charities and community groups, including beneficiaries such as the Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice and the Fleet & Church Crookham First Responders. The Lions Club of Fleet has used this event for many years as a key part of its local fundraising activities (the organisation is registered as LIONS CLUB OF FLEET (CIO), charity number 1177181).

Local residents should expect busier roads around Elvetham Heath on the day, with extra traffic and the sound of many vintage engines. Because the main Key car park will be used to display motorcycles, spectators are usually asked to use the nearby Morrisons car park as overflow parking.
