27th Annual Weston Antique and Classic Car Show

Join us for the 27th Annual Weston & Wayland Rotary Club Antique & Classic Car Show on September 28, 2024. The show is located in Weston Town Center at 11 Townhouse Road, Weston, MA. Rain or shine it promises to be another great event for car owners and families alike. Show cars are encouraged to arrive between 8:00 and 10:00 am.  Guests will be welcomed from 8:00 am to ~ 3:00 pm.

The Car Show has attracted over 200 cars of all years and types and over 2,000 attendees.  Cars range from Ferraris, Mercedes Benz, Jaguars, and Rolls Royce to Chevrolets, Studebakers, Fords, and everything in between. We always tell people we’d like any car you’d like to show!

All net proceeds from the car show go to the Rotary Club of Weston & Wayland Educational Scholarships and other Rotary Club projects such as conservation projects, food security programs, international projects, and more.  

“We are excited to celebrate our 27th year of the show. We hope that everyone will join us this year. Each year, this show gets bigger and more renowned,” according to show Chairmen Richard DeVito, Sr., and Jr. “This show is a Rotary fundraiser that benefits the Rotary Scholarship fund and has raised nearly $642,000 in the first 26 years!”

In addition to cars, you can enjoy lunch at the Weston Rotary Grill, featuring fresh-popped popcorn, hot dogs, hamburgers, and soft drinks. It’s an excellent time for car kids from 6 to 100.
