Carlisle Events brings a variety of events to the Carlisle Pennsylvania Fairgrounds each year. It doesn’t matter what type or brand of vehicles you’re into, Carlisle Events has something for you. The 2023 events schedule is locked and loaded, so you’d better be ready to make a trip to Pennsylvania to check out one of these big shows this year.
The first Carlisle-based event is Spring Carlisle, April 19-24.
