Heard today:- Following a year of absence, the Amherst NH Outdoor Antique Auto Show is returning. Start date: 29 May 2016.

At the original location? Do you have any details? Thanks.

monto · 05-08-2016, 04:54 AM

As far as I know. Initially got it by word of mouth. Subsequently found a posting on the internet that listed the same address with "May 29, 2016, Opening at 5 AM". That's all I know at this time.

Heh. I called Candia (Castaway Farm) to see if they're planning end of month car flea market.

"We're getting it together - we hope so - but not this month (April.)"

I miss Amherst - Candia, or its nearby competition at Epping just ain't the same.

Is the Amherst show on May 29th just a rumor or fact at this point? I hope it's true, always enjoyed it.

It would seem fact - but judge for yourself.

I take the various posts in the HAMB discussion seriously. The pros and cons about Amherst are sincere, valid and appreciated.
In so keeping, I'm inclined, on the 29th, to take a shot at Amherst first. If it's a success, fine. If not, Epping and Candia are on my way home.

Let us know if they raised the parking fees as well as vendors spaces. I agree that at $55 per spot Amherst will not go back to the way it was...

Wow $55 vending fee. What is the admission fee? Epping will be better venders at that price. Better to support the epping show because in a couple of years Amherst will be under construction and where will you go then?
