Coming to a Carlisle Events or Carlisle Auctions backed event is just as much about the fun as it is the savings.  Between the automotive flea market, car corral (cars for sale by owner), and collector car auctions, there are savings at EVERY turn.  Now, Carlisle Events is making available even more ways to save before guests even pass through the gates.

Presented now with immediate savings opportunities, 2023 season passes, plus discounted spectator admission tickets.  Each offers an overall savings and ease of access for those looking to see and shop, while making the entry process super simple from the moment guests arrive in Carlisle!

Season passes are exactly what they sound like, a single pass that allows its holder to attend every event hosted, promoted, and produced by Carlisle Events.  This includes the nine automotive themed events in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, one event in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and four collector car auctions, including two in Lakeland, Florida.  The pass carries a value of nearly $200 but if purchased now, is just $89.99.  In addition, purchasing a pass now allows its holder to also receive access to Fall Carlisle (September 28-October 2), its auction (September 29-30), and the fall auction in Lakeland (November 11-12).  Not only are the passes available online today, but will be for sale in person at Fall Carlisle within the Vendor Services building and at all entry gates of the fairgrounds. 

In addition to season pass savings, Carlisle Events also offers discounted single day, and weekend pass ticketing options.  These tickets are again for spectators only and can be used for a specific day of an event, or the full event itself.  Spectator admission tickets are designed for those looking to see and shop, and unlike a concert ticket that costs X price, but is really XYZ with added fees, discounted spectator tickets at Carlisle are actually cheaper in advance than if purchased at the venue.  There’s even a discounted spectator ticketing option that includes a ticket and parking.  Finally, there’s an added convenience for all options in that the ticket holder does not have to stand in any kind of lengthy line to purchase, then another line for entry.

All ticket options are available online now at CarlisleEvents.com, with season pass sales also available by phone at 717-243-7855.  Purchasing passes is a great way to give the gift of Carlisle too, especially with the holiday season right around the corner.  Finally, a complete 2023 schedule of events is also online, with the 2024 schedule coming soon.  Don’t delay…get the available savings today!

Carlisle Auctions has quietly gone from hosting auctions that yielded great results to loudly positioning itself as an auction house known for getting top dollar for consignments and results for its buyers and sellers!  After TWO great events in 2022, the Lakeland Winter Collector Car Auction in February and the Spring Carlisle Collector Car Auction in April, Carlisle Events’ auction house turns its attention to September 29-30 and the Fall Carlisle Collector Car Auction! 

Starting 12 p.m. daily, the auction brings together decades of automotive excellence.  Lots span from the late1920’s through at least 2016.  Best of all, the gallery of cars covers a variety of auto makers and caliber of show car.  There are cars, trucks, street rods, best of show gems, and daily drivers coming to auction and of course each is available to the highest bidder each day.  Carlisle Auctions WILL yield results, as the collector car market continues to be at an all-time highwater mark as demand and interest goes.  Consignments coming to Carlisle come from dealers, collectors and the average Jane or Joe who enjoys a classic but wants to move on from their current ride in favor of something “new.”

Carlisle Auctions is also showcasing a duo of collections AND its increasingly popular All-Truck Hour (ATH).  As the collections go, they come to the Carlisle Expo Center by way of builder and enthusiast Dave Ferro of Totally Auto, Inc. and from Bill Miller, co-founder of Carlisle Events.  Dave is offering nine lots, while Bill presents 20.  Each collection holds a special place in the hearts of their current owners and will make a great showpiece going forward for any prospective buyer.  The Dave Ferro Collection includes modified and custom rides, including a 1967 Plymouth GTX that’s won multiple best of show awards.  For the Bill Miller Collection, his mix of rides include many that are low mileage, original, and/or have had just one or two owners prior to him. 

Though the auction does start at 12 p.m. each day, the collections have special run times.  The Bill Miller Collection is scheduled for 3 p.m. on September 29, with the All-Truck Hour thereafter at 4 p.m., while the Dave Ferro Collection is planned for 4 p.m. on September 30.  Preview times for these special lots as well as the others confirmed for the Fall Carlisle event start at 8 a.m. on Wednesday, September 28.

The Fall Carlisle Collector Car Auction runs in conjunction with Fall Carlisle itself (September 28-October 2) at the neighboring Carlisle PA Fairgrounds.  Registration as a buyer or seller offers reciprocating access to Fall Carlisle.  Here, even more cars are for sale in the car corral, as well as millions of automotive pieces, parts, merchandise, and collectibles within the automotive flea market and midway. 

Speaking of auctions, the Bill Miller Collection extends beyond the Carlisle Expo Center.  Leading up to the start of Fall Carlisle, Bill will host a collectibles and merchandise auction on September 26-27 at 1188 Spring Rd. in Carlisle.  This auction starts at 10 a.m. daily, with preview times and collectibles bidder registration starting at 8 a.m.

Cars, collectibles, merchandise and items for sale…all in one area, all spanning seven days in Central Pennsylvania!  A gallery of items from the Bill Miller Collection, plus details on the Miller auction, admission tickets for Fall Carlisle, details, and more are available at CarlisleEvents.com.

There’s no better time to be in Florida than the time spanning November through March.  Not only is the weather nearly perfect, but the theme parks are in full holiday bloom.  Best of all, Carlisle Auctions of Carlisle, Pennsylvania converges on central Florida and Lakeland’s SUN ‘n FUN Expo Campus to host and showcase TWO classic and collector car auctions for the droves of locals, transplants, and snowbirds who call the area home.

Fresh off an amazing February 2022 event that saw over $4 million in total sales and hundreds of collector cars go home with new owners, Carlisle Auctions returns to SUN ‘n FUN some nine months later to host the Fall Lakeland Collector Car Auction.  For two days in Pasco County, the facility comes to life with sounds other than the roar of airplane engines.  The Fall auction is November 11-12 and starts at 10:30 a.m. daily.

As part of the Lakeland Fall offering, some 400+ lots are expected, including the always popular All-Truck Hour (ATH).  The truck hour is taking place starting at approximately 1:30 p.m. on Friday, November 11 and offers one full hour of nothing but trucks, Jeeps, Vans, and SUVs.  The ATH has become an annual part of auctions both in Florida and in Carlisle and is hands down the most popular themed hour available to buyers and sellers.

Not long after the Lakeland Fall Collector Car Auction concludes, Carlisle Auctions returns to Florida in February for its Lakeland Winter offering.  This time around, cars take center stage February 10-11, a time that serves as the perfect appetizer for NASCAR and Daytona fans as well as baseball fans who may be in the area for the start of Spring Training.

If Florida in November is good, it’s even better in February because for the Lakeland Winter Collector Car Auction guests, the only thing that’s hot are the deals available!  Once again, 400+ lots are expected, with a 10:30 a.m. daily start and a dedicated All-Truck Hour, tentatively planned for Friday, February 10.

Carlisle Auctions is actively registering bidders for both Florida auctions as well as accepting quality consignments to populate the auction.  Further, Carlisle Auctions offers THREE great ways to bid, in person, on the phone, or online.  Not buying or selling, but still looking for some auction excitement?  Spectator admission is just $10 with ample FREE parking not far from the heart of the action.  Forms, flyers, details, and more are available online at CarlisleAuctions.com or by calling 717-960-6400.
