About This Event

An annual car show held on Walnut Boulevard in downtown Rochester, showcasing classic cars, hot rods, and custom vehicles.

What to Expect

  • 1.You'll see classic cars, hot rods and custom builds lining Walnut Boulevard, so bring a camera to catch the details up close.
  • 2.Downtown Rochester gets busy for this show, so parking can be tight and streets may close to traffic. Arrive early or park a few blocks away and walk the route.
  • 3.The show kicks off at 9 am and runs along Walnut Boulevard with most viewing outdoors; if you want inside a venue or a break from the sun, there are restaurants nearby and the Roxy Rochester a few blocks away.
  • 4.Food and drink options are mainly in the surrounding downtown area, so plan meals around your stroll or bring cash for quick snacks.
  • 5.Wear comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, and bring water; you will be on your feet for hours while checking out the cars.
