Top tier DJs, 3 car shows, fantastic food and drinks, and an arcade with more pinball machines than you can count, what do all of these have in common? They can all be found at Hamilton Octane Fest 2025! For our third year we are going bigger than ever, with more awards, more ways to get involved, and the same great time! Please note, spectators are free and do not require a ticket to enter.

Hamilton Octane Fest Main Show
Check out some sweet rides, check out our vendors, and listen to the music for our main show!
For those who plan to showcase, we saw your rides last year, and felt many of you deserved awards and we just didn't have enough, so we will be offering more awards this year! These included all the same awards as last year but with a Runner-up Best in Show award, a Best Lowrider award, and 10 honorable mention awards! We also ask that all who plan to showcase their vehicle please pre-register. We will have on-site registration, but parking will be first-come, first-serve for those who aren't pre-registered. We reserve the right to deny entry to any vehicle for any reason. SAVE BY PRE-REGISTERING! A portion of all ticket sales go to The Shield Ohio.
Import Nights
Our fan favorite show! Watch as the cars illuminate with the streetlights, the music goes electronic, and the good times roll with the imports!
We will be prioritizing parking for import vehicles this year, we also ask that who plan to showcase their vehicle please pre-register. We will have on-site registration, but parking will be first-come, first-serve. We cannot guarantee parking on 3rd Street. We reserve the right to deny entry to any vehicle for any reason.
