Upcoming Area Car Events
We're always looking for some excuse to drive our cars,
and we'll try to keep up with posting area events here that you might be interested in cruising to.
Sometimes our club members will gather and drive to some of these events as a group,
or we may just meet there.
Feel free to contact us to see if we're cruisin together
and if you might be able to join us. Check out a few photos and some details of some Past Events that our club has taken cars to.
Please confirm all dates, times, and entry fees with the event promoters directly as we may not be able to keep this page up to date with last minute changes.

In Bastrop, Texas, we hold our veterans in the highest regard.
That's why we host the annual Bastrop Veterans Weekend Cruise-In, Veterans Tribute Ceremony, and Car Show, a beloved tradition that brings the community together to celebrate our heroes.
Cruise down historic Main Street and admire classic cars, or join the Veterans Tribute Ceremony for a heartwarming commemoration.
In 2024 we had approximately 400 vehicles on the car show field, with an estimated 4,000 to 5,000 attending the event, over the weekend, as spectators. 2025 will be the 19th year for the car show and Veterans’ tribute event!
Along with the Saturday car show there is a Veterans’ Tribute ceremony honoring those who have served or are currently serving our country in the military. On the Friday night before the car show there will be a Cruise-In on Main Street in Downtown Bastrop. The City of Bastrop, VisitBastrop.com, and many Bastrop businesses strongly support this event and welcome all visitors to our historic downtown and surrounding areas.
Well over 75% of the proceeds from the event go primarily to many local & central Texas Veteran support organizations. The remainder goes to automotive technology scholarships for several Bastrop County high schools and to other local charities (food pantries, homeless resources, children’s organizations, etc.).
Friday, November 7
Festivities begin on Friday evening AT 5PM with the Cruise-In on Historic Main Street in Downtown Bastrop, TX.
