IN 2025, THE ROAD IS THE SHOW
If you're into chrome, curves, and carburetors... and you're chasing that next story-worthy weekend... this is it.
This isn't your Dad's parking lot car show. It's two days of interactive socialization and fun in one of the most scenic small towns in America. Tight mountain roads. Historic downtown streets. Big personalities. Bigger engines.
Whether you're rolling in with your ride or just showing up for the vibe... Eureka Springs is where you want to be.

EVENING HIGHLIGHTS
6:00 to 9:00 PM – Drag Van Buren... It might not be as long as "Woodward in Detroit", but the Drag on Van Buren delivers the same unmistakable vibe... engines humming, locals posted up in lawn chairs, and classic cars cruising like it's 1972.
What sets Eureka apart in 2025? The road is the show! On Saturday night, come cruise at your own pace on a 3 mile loop on Highway 62 between Ridgeview Drive and Glenn Ave. Fans line the route and the atmosphere is electric. It’s not a race. It’s a tradition.
7:30 PM – Ticketed Concert at The Aud featuring the Ozark Mountain Daredevils
Wrap up the weekend with a high-energy show at the historic Auditorium. Great sound. Great crowd. Great way to finish.

Get your crew. Pack the cooler. Clean the camera lenses.
