Event Description

What to Expect

The Waukesha Old Car Club invites you to their 46th Annual Car Show, the Waukesha Old Car Club Show Picnic at Frame Park.

This annual event showcases a diverse collection of Classic, Antique, Hot Rods, Stock, Muscle, and Modified Cars, Trucks, and Motorcycles.

Held in the scenic Frame Park, the show offers a relaxed, picnic-like atmosphere for enthusiasts and families alike.

Attendees can enjoy oldies music and dancing throughout the day. Food, beer, wine, and soda will be available for purchase. A unique aspect of this show is the class judging, conducted by spectators. Car Show T-shirts will also be available for purchase at Car Show Central.

Tips for Attending

Spectator admission to the Waukesha Old Car Club Show Picnic is free. If you plan to exhibit a vehicle, there is a $15 entrance fee per show car, payable on-site as no pre-registrations are accepted.

Waukesha summers are often hot and sunny.  Consider bringing sunglasses and sunscreen.

If you are attending with young children, consider bringing a stroller or wagon.

Be aware that outside sales, vendors, or advertisers are not permitted at the car show.

Please note that, per City of Waukesha Ordinance, dogs are not allowed in Frame Park. Participants attend at their own risk.

Is it Worth It?

This event is a great fit for classic car enthusiasts, hot rod fans, and anyone interested in seeing a wide variety of vintage and custom vehicles.

Families looking for a free, outdoor activity with food, music, and a lively atmosphere will also find it enjoyable. It's particularly appealing for those who appreciate a community-focused car show where spectators can participate in judging.

However, this event may not be a great fit for individuals looking to bring their pets, as dogs are prohibited in the park. It's also not suitable for those seeking to set up their own sales booths or advertise, as outside vendors are not allowed.

If you prefer highly formal, professional judging over spectator-based awards, this might not align with your expectations.
