Pedal to the Metal This Month for Rockville’s Car Show
October 1, 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 among vehicles from more than 30 car clubs, from Packard and Plymouth to Fiat and Ferrari.
The show — one of the oldest and the largest in the mid- Atlantic region — is free for spectators and features a flea market and live music by The Rock-A-Sonics.
Food and drink will be available for purchase.
An accessible courtesy shuttle will run every 15-20 minutes from Meadow Hall Elementary School, 951 Twinbrook Parkway, to the rear of the F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre, near the show grounds, from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. The shuttle is operated by the Rockville Senior Center and will be marked “Rockville Senior Services.”
Limited public parking opens at 9:30 a.m. and is available at Rockville Civic Center Park by entering from Baltimore Road at Avery Road. Follow event signage and staff direction.
Accessible parking in the park’s main parking lot is available on a first-come, first-served basis for those with an accessible placard or license plate.
Bike parking is located in the parking spaces outside Rockville Civic Center Park’s tennis courts.
