48th Annual Antique Auto Festival
The annual Eureka Springs Antique Automobile Festival, September 7th & 8th, 2018, celebrates its 48th year with a new, larger venue: the Great Passion Play. Set against the Ozarks’ spectacular autumnal colors, this premier event is the longest running car show in the Ozarks, featuring hundreds of restored classics, hot rods, street machines, customs, rat rods, muscle cars and rare trucks, all competing for more than 25 professionally judged awards.
Enjoy free admission, music, vendor displays, food trucks, gift shop, art museum and Passion Play restaurants. The awards ceremony is followed by the traditional Parade of Show Cars, traveling through historic downtown Eureka Springs.
With the support of the Ford Galaxie Club of America, private collectors and regional car clubs, event organizers expect record turnout in this year. The new Passion Play venue provides wonderful photo ops, housing the largest Christ statue in the US, a section of the famed Berlin Wall, a world-class art museum, trolley service to downtown Eureka Springs and plenty of free parking. RV/camp sites and vendor display space available.
A portion of event proceeds will benefit Eureka Springs ECHO clinic, a non-profit organization serving the healthcare needs of community members and Carroll county residents.
The tax-deductible car registration fee is $25 before July 2nd and $30 thereafter. Vendor display spaces are $50, or $75 for spaces equipped with electricity.
