Calling All Cars: Potential Gearing Up For Newtown Car Show

NEWTOWN TOWNSHIP, PA — Classic, custom, muscle, exotic, and modern vehicles will roll onto the campus of the Bucks County Community College in September for the 10th Annual Car Show & Family Fun Day for Autism.

The event - a day where chrome shines, engines roar, and every rev helps create a brighter future for children and adults with autism - is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 26, from 1 to 5 p.m.

This year’s milestone event celebrates Potential’s 20th anniversary of transforming lives while marking the 10th anniversary of its beloved Car Show & Family Fun Day for Autism.

What started as a gathering for car enthusiasts has become one of the community’s favorite family traditions, bringing together supporters, local businesses, and neighbors to celebrate inclusion, connection, and possibility.

Visitors can explore an impressive lineup of vehicles, enjoy delicious food, live music, raffles, vendors, and family-friendly entertainment throughout the day. Children can meet their favorite characters from a galaxy far, far away as they stroll the show grounds, adding a little movie magic to an already unforgettable afternoon.

Children can meet their favorite characters from Star Wars.
