Ramona Off-Road Car Show | 2026 | Ramona, CA
Ramona Off-Road Car Show is kicking up 5th-anniversary dust with a gathering built for rigs that look better with a little dirt in their story.
This one has a different kind of personality than a polished street-car show. The focus is on off-road machinery, so expect the lineup to lean toward lifted trucks, Jeeps, desert builds, buggies, prerunners, 4x4s, and other rigs with real trail attitude. It should have that rugged, sand-in-the-tires feel where people are just as interested in suspension setups, tires, lighting, and recovery gear as they are in paint and shine.
Hosted by the Ramona Chamber of Commerce, the show returns Saturday, August 1, 2026, from 10 am to 2 pm as part of the Ramona Country Fair. The 5th anniversary gives it a little extra weight, especially for participants who have watched the event grow over the years. The message is pretty simple: if you take it off road, bring it out to the show.
Happening at Ramona Outdoor Community Center in Ramona, San Diego County, the fairground setting fits the off-road theme naturally. This is the kind of place where trucks, sand cars, side-by-side-inspired builds, and desert-ready customs feel more at home than they would in a tight city lot. For Southern California off-road fans, the Ramona backdrop adds a proper inland, country-road edge to the day.
Ramona Off-Road Car Show feels like one for people who like their car events a little louder, taller, and dustier than usual. Bring the rig, walk the fairgrounds, and expect a crowd that knows the difference between a showpiece and something built to get used.
