Rockville’s Car Show Returns in October to Rewind Some Sweet Rides

August 30, 2024

The Rockville Antique and Classic Car Show, a city tradition for more than six decades, rolls into Rockville Civic Center Park on Saturday, Oct. 19.

The show will be held 11 a.m.-3:30 p.m. at the picturesque park at 603 Edmonston Drive. Home to the historic Glenview Mansion, the hills of Rockville Civic Center Park offer a fall backdrop for collectors and enthusiasts to share memories as they stroll through vehicles from 32 car clubs, from Packard and Plymouth to Fiat and Ferrari.

The free show – one of the oldest and the largest in the mid-Atlantic region – is open to the public and features a flea market, car sales area and live music by Bad Influence Band. Food and drink will be available for purchase.

While admission is free, there is a fee to display a vehicle. Participants must pre-register. The early bird registration fee through Wednesday, Sept. 11 is $10. Registration is $20 from Thursday, Sept. 12 until 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 11, or when registration is full. There will be no registration on the day of the show.

The early bird fee to sell a car or reserve a flea market space is $30 through Wednesday, Sept. 11 and $40 thereafter.
