They have merged our popular Blues Music Festival with a Classic Car  Show to bring you the best of both worlds. This event is free and open to the public.  

In partnership with The Road Knights Car Club for this downtown event, the Road Knights will accept classic cars prior to 1980 models. No registration fee is required, and cars will be entered and parked first come, first serve until the spots are full (approx. 100 cars). Once  the car show area is full, overflow show cars can park in any available spaces downtown or  in a parking lot.
