Rockville’s Car Show Roars Back in October
August 31, 2026
The Rockville Antique and Classic Car Show, a city tradition for more than six decades, rolls into Rockville Civic Center Park on Saturday, Oct. 17.
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 more than 30 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 and live music by The Rock-A-Sonics. Food and drink will be available for purchase.
While admission is free, there is a fee to display a vehicle.
Participants must preregister. The early bird registration fee through Friday, Sept. 11 is $15. Registration is $25 from Saturday, Sept. 12. There will be no registration on the day of the show.
The early bird fee to reserve a flea market space is $35 through Friday, Sept. 11 and $45 thereafter.
