European Car Show

Weekend July 18/19, 2026

Schenley Park is the scene of one of the area’s largest car shows. We stage an International Car Show – a combined show of 20 distinct displays featuring nearly 3,000 cars. Enjoy a picnic atmosphere, browse the sponsor tents, visit vendors, and sample the various food options. The main gate at the Schenley Drive and Forbes Avenue intersection opens daily at 8:00 AM for pre-registered vehicles.

Many of our European marques, such as BMW, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Volkswagen, are stabled in their own distinct car shows hosted by local car clubs. The Grand Prix has a dedicated show for other European cars, represented primarily by Volvo and Saab. We welcome your entry and hope you can join us for the weekend and throughout Race Week. If you are a European car club or group that is interested in learning more about your own display area, please email Mark Sheldon.
