Wheaton, IL – Classic cars and automotive fans will take center stage later this month as Cantigny hosts its 19th Annual Car Show on Sunday, Sept. 21.
According to event organizers, the show will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the South Parking Lot of the Cantigny Park grounds in Wheaton. Admission is $21 per vehicle, and the first 200 guests through the gate will receive a free limited-edition T-shirt.
This year’s event will be cashless, requiring all onsite payments, including same-day registration, to be made with a debit or credit card. Car owners interested in entering their vehicles can register for $28, which includes parking. Online registration is available through the Cantigny website.
Organizers said the annual showcase continues to attract collectors and car lovers from across the region. The 2024 Cantigny Choice Award went to Allen Hunt of Wheaton for his restored 1960 Austin Healey Sprite, highlighting the event’s competitive spirit and celebration of vintage craftsmanship.
Now in its 19th year, the car show has grown into a late-summer tradition for suburban enthusiasts. Attendees can expect a wide display of classic and custom automobiles, along with opportunities to connect with owners and learn more about the history of the vehicles on display.
Event staff encourage visitors to arrive early to secure giveaways and enjoy the full day of activities. More information, including registration details, is available through Cantigny’s official event page.
