36th Annual Venice AACA Car Show
Sunday, March 29th, 2026
Registration will soon be open for the Venice AACA Car Show, being held on Sunday, March 29th, 2026. This 36th edition of the Venice Region AACA (Antique Automotive Club of America) Car Show, the best antique and classic car show in Southwest Florida, returns to Centennial Park in beautiful downtown Venice. This show will be special as we celebrate the 100-year Centennial of Venice. There will be lots of special Centennial events throughout this year’s show.
Come show off your antique or classic vehicle along with more than 300 other car show participants. The show features all types of vehicles - stock, modified, hot rods, customs, rat rods, and motorcycles. There are 30+ vehicle classes with 100+ trophies awarded.
This show always sells out, so register early. Show day registrations are NOT accepted. The Venice AACA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, with all proceeds from the car show going to local charities. (More details to follow soon.)
The show is free for spectators and is one you don’t want to miss. Past shows have drawn 15-20 thousand visitors to Venice with its revitalized downtown area. Come and take in all the beautiful cars and trucks, talk with the vehicle owners, show the kids or grandkids the cars you grew up with, and enjoy some time reminiscing about the ‘good old days’. While you’re there remember to take advantage of the many great restaurants and unique shops in the downtown area.
There will also be vendor displays and food trucks in and around Centennial Park, raffle drawings, car show merchandise including car show tee-shirts for sale, live music, and the awards ceremony featuring several local dignitaries. We hope to see you there!
