This free event takes place every year in Downtown Covina and includes Hot Rods and Classic Cars, Live Music, Vendor Booths and Shopping, and a Gourmet Beer/Wine/Food Garden.
Hot Rods & Classic Cars
Over 200 Hot Rods, Classic, and Custom Cars Attend This Event Every Year to Duke it out for trophies and bragging rights.
Park for free in one of the nearby municipal parking lots, and stroll along Citrus Avenue to check out the Hot Rods, Custom, and Classic Cars. We have returning car owners that always attract a huge crowd and new participants each year, so it's always a new car show!
The cars line up on Citrus Avenue between Badillo Street and San Bernardino Road in the heart of Downtown Covina. Check out over 200 classic cars that have been lovingly restored or maintained - all older than 1972.
