Ventura Beach Car Show | 2026 | Ventura, CA
Ventura Beach Car Show is rolling into Downtown Ventura for 2026 with a California Street takeover built around classics, kustoms, hot rods, lowriders, and coastal car-show energy.
This one has a bright beach-town feel right away. The downtown street setting gives the show more movement than a standard parking lot event, with cars lined along California Street and people moving between restaurants, bars, shops, and the local crowd. Attendees can expect a strong mix of classic cars, lowriders, hot rods, kustoms, and polished cruisers, with music, awards, giveaways, and family-friendly energy filling in around the lineup.
Organized by Rocks and Drams Ventura Bar, the event leans into supporting Downtown Ventura while still keeping the cars at the center. Rocks and Drams adds to the day with a live DJ on the patio, giveaways, prizes, food, cocktails, and a longer happy hour during the show. Nearby spots like Cafe Fiore and Lure Fish House also help the event feel connected to the street rather than boxed into one single venue.
Set in Downtown Ventura in Ventura County, the location gives the show a natural coastal backdrop without needing to force the theme. California Street already carries that walkable downtown feel, and when you add lowriders, classics, hot rods, and kustoms into the mix, the whole area should have a strong Saturday crowd around it. It is the kind of setting where the cars, storefronts, palm trees, and nearby beach-town atmosphere all work together.
Ventura Beach Car Show feels like a good fit for anyone who enjoys car events with a little city life around the edges. The rides bring the shine, the downtown businesses bring the energy, and the coastal setting gives the day a relaxed rhythm. Bring the family, bring a camera, and expect a Ventura show with plenty of street-level character.
