FIeros at Carlisle 29th year June 24th 2023 (Page 1/3)
Dennis LaGrua MAY 13, 07:05 PM
Since I didn't read many posts about this as yet, I thought that it would be nice that I'd mention the second largest Fiero event of 2023. It is Fieros at Carlisle 2023 at the GM Nationals show that celebrates the 28th year of the event. I believe 80 Fieros have already been pre-registered and this would make it a large event. This year the Pontiac Fiero will be the featured car of the show and its on my calendar.
This show is different than the 40th celebration in that it has some unique features. It is a GM show featuring all makes and models. The fairground covers 82 acres and draws over 1000 cars and something like 20,000 attendees. Its also has a swap meet/flea market where you can find parts, books, tools, accessories. The Fiero show within a show will take place on Saturday June 24th 2023 and MAFOA will feature some other events during that time.
Location:
Carlisle PA Fairgrounds
1000 Bryn Mawr Rd.
Carlisle, PA 17013

UPDATE: Just checked and some Carlisle area hotels are already sold out. If you wish to attend and stay over its a good idea to book something now

Jen: Wow, great job and with Carlisle events featuring the 40th year anniversary of the Fiero . Its beginning to look like MAFOA is now on a roll. An exciting time for Fiero owners with two big events coming up

MAFOA had like 150 Fieros register for Carlisle in 2021, and I think 135 made it.

It would be awesome if we could break that record this year, since Carlisle is putting a lot of effort into show casing the Fiero this year for it's 40th anniversary.

If you are planning to go to the 40th in Michigan, yes, that does make this a tough year for travel and costs, though a sync like this won't happen again for a decade!

Events at the GM Nationals/ Fieros at Carlisle will be going on all day Saturday June 24th on the 82 acre fairgrounds.
Info here:
]https://carlisleevents.com...=eventguide_gm23

It looks like over 100 Fieros will be in attendance for MAFOA and Carlisle Events will have an indoor display in Building T featuring the Pontiac Fiero with both historically preserved models as well as highly modified examples.
The dozen Featured Fieros exhibited in buidling T are listed here about half way down.

Hey All!

There are 116 Fieros registered - you can join in on the fun and pre-register at www.mafoa.com/fac2023 by Tuesday, June 19 or register on site. Among these vehicles is the 2+2 Concept Car and some other really amazing builds! We are so excited to welcome back returning attendees, as well as dozens of new ones.

are we expecting something in the mail before we show up to the event, or do we just get what we need at the gate after checking in?

thanks

If you registered, you should have gotten a standard letter envelope from Carlisle Events that would have had your car sticker and other paperwork in it already.

If you did not, you can go to the Vendor Services building at the grounds and they can look you up and get you a new sticker and stuff. I think it's 10 bucks for the replacement sticker.

WOW, over 116 Fieros and counting. Carlisle has always been the best regional show in the Eastern/mid-Atlantic area. Its not the great and larger 40th celebration in Michigan but different in that all GM brands are represented and the daily events like the Nitrofest, Manufacturers midway, Tech sessions by GM, Supercar Showroom and automotive flea market set it apart.
It would be very unfair for me or anyone else to make a statement on what show is better but will just say that both shows are really great for the Fiero owner. See you at Carlisle.
