Gate 5 access and the adjoining parking lot are permanently closed to the public, event organizers said. A new lot with free shuttle services will be available.
CARLISLE, Pa. — With Car Show Season at the Carlisle Fairgrounds just over a month away, Carlisle Events on Friday announced changes to fairgrounds access points and parking modifications.
The season’s first event, Spring Carlisle, will take place April 23-27, Carlisle Events said.
Among the changes automotive enthusiasts will notice this season are:
Gate 5 Access and Parking Lot Closure
The most significant change for 2025 is the closure of Gate 5 and its associated parking lot.
Located on the northeast side of the grounds off Cavalry Rd., this gate previously accommodated a few hundred vehicles per show and allowed for pedestrian and vehicle entry to the fairgrounds.
“Due to circumstances beyond our control, this parking lot and access gate will no longer be available and is closed permanently to the public,” Carlisle Events said.
New Cavalry Rd./Gate 6 Parking Lot with Free Shuttle
To accommodate displaced guests, a new/larger parking lot has been secured, also off Cavalry Rd.
This lot, named Cavalry Rd./Gate 6 Parking, is located directly across the street from the PA Army National Guard Armory (0.1 miles from Gate 5) and offers 700+ parking spaces.
Guests who park here will have access to a FREE shuttle service that runs from the lot to Gate 6, located on the east side of the fairgrounds.
A ticket booth will also be available in the lot so showgoers can purchase tickets before hopping on the shuttle, making grounds access that much more convenient.
Enhanced Accessibility at Gate 4
In 2025, Gate 4, located on the northwest portion of the fairgrounds, will be more accessible for visitors. Guests can park via direct access from the intersection of K St. and Bryn Mawr Rd. and walk onto the grounds to begin their car show experience.
For Spring and Fall Carlisle, this area will feature vendor spaces, while for specialty shows, it will showcase display vehicles.
Additional Parking Options Near Clay St. & Carlisle Springs Rd. (Route 34)
Several parking options are also available off Clay St. and Carlisle Springs Rd. (Route 34), all within a reasonable walking distance to Gate 1 on the southeast side of the fairgrounds.
Enhanced signage will be placed along Cavalry Rd., Clay St., and Carlisle Springs Rd. (Route 34) to direct participants towards the Gates 1, 2, and 3 points of entry.
The Cavalry Rd./Gate 6 Parking lot is available for all events EXCEPT for the Carlisle Import & Performance Nationals and Carlisle GM Nationals. Those two events accommodate on grounds parking, with 100% of the entry points coming from the west side of the grounds and Gates 1, 2, and 3.
Parking in all Carlisle Events lots is just $10 per vehicle regardless of event.
