The Waynesville Annual Car Show returns Sunday, July 19th 2026 from 9 AM to 1 PM, bringing that old fashioned charm back to downtown. Main Street will be lined with vintage rides, friendly faces, and the sweet sounds of summertime. Start your morning with hot coffee and fresh donuts as you take in rows of beautifully restored classics. From shiny chrome to well loved patina, there’s something for every car lover and plenty of hometown cheer to go around.

And when the engines quiet down, stick around and shop our local stores. You’ll find treasures, treats, and plenty of small town hospitality.
