Gathering of the Classics is the 31st annual fly-in/drive-in focused on vintage and near vintage vehicles. Nationally recognized as Canada’s largest “fly-in / drive-in” event it is hosted by the Edenvale Classic Aircraft Foundation (ECAF) located at Edenvale Aerodrome east of Stayner in Simcoe County and is scheduled to be held on Aug. 10, with a rain date of Aug. 11.
The ‘Gathering’ is a one day fly-in and drive-in event celebrating vintage aircraft and cars. We normally host 5,000 attendees, over 200 aircraft of all types and well over 300 classic cars.
Within the aerodrome we will have aircraft and car display areas, and aircraft rides . The really big news is that this year we are proud to have the public debut of the AVRO Arrow replica in its new home at the Aerodrome. Additionally there’s a children’s play area featuring very special ‘airplane’ pedal cars where young aviators can spread their wings, eat, read, visit craft vendors and other attractions. All of these activities are set up close to the aircraft and car action. The Gathering is a rare opportunity to get up close to aircraft and talk to pilots/drivers/owners.
