Friday Night at Old Town
Muscle Car Show & Cruise
Every Friday night beginning at 3 p.m., Old Town Kissimmee turns the streets into a series of high-performance, true horsepower engines. You’ll see show-quality muscle and factory-performance vehicles from 1964 and newer and 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 the one you can find with a front-row area 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 Kissimmee from Highway 192 under the east (left) side of the Jukebox signs where you’ll be greeted by event staff. Then, you’ll meet with a security escort for further instructions. Please do not drive on the bricks without permission (that’s a special treat!).
