Every week, Old Town Entertainment District in Kissimmee draws car enthusiasts with its iconic classic car shows, featuring hot rods, muscle cars, and vintage rides. Built in 1986 to capture the charm of a classic Florida town, this retro-inspired entertainment district pairs its popular car shows with live music, family-friendly fun, and a nostalgic atmosphere.

Engines are a go! Let’s get into the cars you’ll see at Old Town Entertainment District car shows.

Friday Night at Old Town

Muscle Car Show & Cruise

Every Friday evening starting at 3 p.m., Old Town Entertainment District turns the streets into a parade of high-performance horsepower engines. You’ll see show-quality muscle and factory-performance vehicles from 1964 and newer, as well as classics from 1985 and older. The car cruise loops around beginning at 8:30 p.m. If you’re there to watch the cars go by, the best spot is to grab front-row space on the sidewalk. If you want to participate in this historic event, it’s free for car owners — just be sure to register before the event.

For participating cars, enter Old Town Entertainment District from Highway 192 under the east (left) side of the jukebox signs, where you’ll be greeted by event staff and meet with a security escort for further instructions. Please do not drive on the bricks without permission (that’s a special treat!).

Every month, Old Town Cruisers can win $1,000.

Saturday Night Classic Car Cruise

America’s longest-running car cruise. A weekend tradition for more than 33 years. What more could you want?

Drive down memory lane with show-quality 1985 and older hot rods, street rods, and antiques. Come by during the day, starting at 1 p.m., to view the cars up close and personal, then see them cruise Old Town’s brick Main Street at 8:30 p.m. You can also stay until 11 p.m. for live entertainment and late-night bites.

Sunday Night Import Car Show

Trophy Row is hopping with the Import Car Show on the last Sunday of every month, 4 - 9 p.m. Not only is it free to participate in, but it’s also free to attend!

If you’re looking to enter your car, it must be show-quality. JDM (Japanese Domestic Market), KDM (Korean Domestic Market), and Domestic Turner models are all welcome.

Exotic Cars & Coffee on Sundays

The word “exotic” usually refers to unusual or expensive cars. Here at Old Town Entertainment District, the term means “the type of vehicle that dreams are made of.” On select Sundays each month from 10 a.m. to noon, Trophy Row is display central for these unique cars. When you think of these exotic car brands, imagine the finest Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Lotus, and McLaren, just to name a few.

Wednesday Themed Car Show

Every Wednesday, Old Town Entertainment District hosts specific types, models, or makes of show-quality cars and trucks. This event is free to the public and to participate in. Park in any open spot at Old Town, watch the cars go by at 5 p.m., and end the night with live music on the main stage.

Each Wednesday is a different theme, so you’ll see themes like Jeep Night, Camaros and Corvettes, MOPAR Night, VW and Mini Cooper Night, Mustangs and classic Fords.
