The annual Eureka Springs Antique Automobile Festival, September 6th & 7th, 2019, celebrates its 49th year continuing with our 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 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.

The tax-deductible car registration fee is $25. Vendor display spaces are $50, or $75 for spaces equipped with electricity. Click here to register online or download registration form here. Return by mail (address listed below), email to gescocevents@gmail.com. Parade-only passes are new this year and available for only $10.

Valve Cover Racing

Remember the Pine Wood Derby? Replace that chunk of wood for a valve cover from your favorite project car and compete for a trophy, door prizes and garage engineering bragging rights at the Ozarks’s first Valve Cover Drag Racing Show Down. Kids and adults compete on a two-lane gravity track based on the rules provided here. Be creative, feed your inner gear head imagination and get ready to race. Unlike NASCAR, NHRA and Indycar … the trophy goes to the designer with the better brain, not the bigger wallet.
