Expect to see English cars, motorcycles and commercial vehicles of all ages. The featured marque this year is the Jaguar XJ.
The day will include self-guided tours of the Government House gardens, a pipe band and fun for all ages.
Food trucks will be on-site, or bring your own picnic to enjoy in the garden.
