Welcome!

To the 26^th Annual Classic at Pismo Beach
June 17 - 19, 2011

The 25th anniversary show in June 2010 has now come and gone and we are looking forward to the 26th annual Classic at Pismo Beach, June 17th through 19th, 2011.

We would like to thank all of our Sponsors, past and present, for their generosity and support. Without them the show would not be what it is today. Please support our sponsors, they are listed on our Sponsors Page.

The Classic at Pismo Beach is one of the largest classic car and street rod shows on the West Coast and "one of the finest." Pismo Beach, California, is the host city for this classic car show, now coming up on its 25th year. This show, held annually on the 3rd full weekend of June, pulls in 1000 classic cars and street rods and over 125,000 spectators over three days.

We hope you attended the show in 2010 and had a great time with us. Everyone, including the city of Pismo Beach, tells us that we had a record crowd.  A big hit at the show is always the Hot Rod Bar & Grill - a huge tent on the beach by the pier that is "ground central" for this show. Everything that is happening begins and ends there.

We have included the "Gold Class" cars inside the Hot Rod Bar & Grill. What is the Gold Class? The Gold Class is a select group of cars that if they were put into a normal class, without question would win the award, hands down, because of the amount of time and money spent. These cars are selected on the basis that they are the absolute elite cream of the crop and compete with each other for the Platinum Award. The Platinum Award winner is the overall winner of the Gold Class. Once again in 2010 we will have the Gold Class, so if you think your car could be Gold, notify us at Registration for qualification.

After such a great weekend, we are ready to do it again! Our next event, Classic at Pismo Beach, is scheduled for June 17th – 9th, 2011, in downtown Pismo Beach. We have some great events planned, and the Hot Rod Bar & Grill will be back with music all weekend long. Don't miss out and register today!

Look for June 2011 to be bigger and better then ever! Stay tuned for updated information. We have some great events planned, and the Hot Rod Bar & Grill will be back with live music on Friday & Saturday night. (Bands TBA)

   In 2011, we will once again have a special Live Charity Auction on Saturday to raise funds for the Veterans. In 2008 with the help from Sponsors, Participants and Spectators we were able to raise approximately $250,000.00 for veterans. The donation check to the veterans was presented on Sunday October 5, 2008 at the Veterans Car show. For more information, visit www.veterancarshow.com

These activities, along with the vast array of vendors both in the Pier Lot and Street, and the always-great shopping at the local merchants, make for an overall perfect weekend.

Stay tuned for updated information, as it becomes available!

How do we get involved? You can get all the information you need right here on our web site. Forms are available for car registration and vendor registration. You might want to hurry, because space is limited and available on a first-come-first-serve basis. Registrations can be faxed to our office at 951-656-5187.

NOTE: Confirmations for all participants that register will be mailed out the last week of May.

Rooms and campsites are still available in the Pismo Beach area. Visit the Lodging portion of our web site for links to rooms in Pismo and the surrounding areas.

All car people love charities and we are no exception. We will not plan an event without a charity involved. Join us each year at the Hot Rod Bar & Grill under the tent at the corner of Pomeroy and the pier parking lot. A portion of every dollar you spend under the tent for food and drink will go directly to the charity. Have fun while helping raise money for a worthy cause!

Thanks for stopping by our web site and your interest in our event. It is simply great fun for all who attend. We hope to see you there!
