An international theme will see vehicles travel from far and wide for the 2020 Deal Classic Motor Show.
The showcase at Walmer Green is among the largest in the south and attracts people from across the UK.
The event supports the RNLI Walmer Lifeboat and has raised thousands for the cause over the years.
Organiser Chris West said: “This year the event will be even bigger than before, we have classic vehicles coming from the Netherlands and France. Classics will be rolling into Deal from across the UK, from 1918 to the modern day, local dealerships and motorbikes.
“There will be live music on Deal Memorial Bandstand and the Classic Music Stage including Hot Wax, Smokin’ Mavericks, Hollie Fermin from ITV The Voice Kids and more; the very popular RNLI Real Ale Bar, retro market, children’s entertainers and rides and a special surprise which we will announced in due course.”
He added that the support of local businesses is needed to ensure The Deal Classic Motor Show continues and sponsorship opportunities are available.
The event is free to the public and there is free car parking.
He added: “The show boosts the local economy with many traders in the town reporting that last year was the best trading day of the year.
Last year comedian Vic Reeves and partner Nancy Sorrell opened the event.
“It is getting bigger year on year, this means our costs are increasing.”
The show is on Saturday, May 23.
