Main Street Reunion Car Show

Rev your engines and join us for one of the Valley's best events. Main Street Reunion Car Show features 400 pre-1976 cars, all on display in Downtown Napa. The event is hosted by the Downtown Napa Association and the Napa Valley Cruisers Car Club. Parking and admission are free. Advance registration to show a car is $35; $40 after August 9th.  


This year's event includes the addition of Show N' Shine on Friday, August 16 from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Live music, provided by Hot Rod Jukebox, plus food, beer (and of course cars) will be only some of the activities to enjoy during this warm Napa night. Show N' Shine will take place in the south parking lot of 500 First Street (next to Oxbow Public Market).


Thousands of people come out to see the fleet of cars making it the largest one-day event in Napa. Downtown Napa serves as the perfect place for the car show. Its restaurants, shopping and wine bars serve as the ideal backdrop to the chrome, fenders and vinyl seats of these four-wheeled pieces of art and design.
