The 66th Annual Old Timers’ Day Classic Car Show & Family Festival is coming to Selbyville on Saturday, June 17, 2023 from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm. This event is hosted by the Bethany-Fenwick Area Chamber of Commerce, the Town of Selbyville, and presented by Bunting & Murray Construction Corporation.

A family-friendly affair, Old Timers’ Day will include classic cars across multiple decades as far back as the 1920s, tunes from DJ Brian K. Hall sponsored by the Bank of Ocean City, food vendors, children’s activities, an outdoor beer garden, live music from the Glass Onion Band sponsored by Mountaire Farms, local artisans, historic walking tour, and a Community Yard Sale benefiting the Selbyville Public Library.

Back once again, the Old Timers’ Day event will feature a pop-up beer garden, sponsored by Banks Wines & Spirits. Lasting from 10:00 am – 3:00 pm, enjoy some beer and look at all of the beautiful vehicles on display. Salem United Methodist Church will host a number of carnival games sponsored by Northwestern Mutual on Saturday along with inflatables. Enjoy a Fire Truck Ride courtesy of the Selbyville Volunteer Fire Department.

This year, the festival has grown and will feature all sorts of new attractions! Browse the work of local artisans along Church Street and do some shopping at the Community Yard Sale benefitting the Selbyville Public Library.

Take a stroll through town and experience the historic walking tour. Tour the historic Townsend House (current location at the Selbyville Public Library) before visiting Salem United Methodist Church, Bishop Hastings Funeral Home, and ending at the Selbyville Railroad Museum with stops in between.

“Locals, visitors, families, and car enthusiasts alike have spent the Saturday of Father’s Day weekend in downtown Selbyville, and we love having the opportunity to highlight the town,” says Chamber Executive Director Lauren Weaver. “Guests find our inland towns to be charming and family-friendly. The classic cars and trucks are a blast from the past.”

Vehicle entry into the car show is $10, and the first 100 registrants receive a commemorative event gift. Judges will evaluate the interior, exterior, and engine compartment of each vehicle, with prizes awarded for each category by decade, as well as cash prizes for People’s Choice and Best in Show.
