Grand National Roadster Show

The Grand National Roadster Show has been closely monitoring the current coronavirus outbreak and the government regulations made as a result. Due to the lack of clear guidelines from the state on how and when events can resume, Rod Shows has made the very tough decision to cancel the Grand National Roadster Show in 2021. Rest assured, we will return again in 2022 for a bigger, more exciting celebration with the cars and friends we all love. Stay tuned for more updates over the coming weeks.

Thank you to all of our guests, participants, exhibitors and sponsors for an unbelievable Grand National Roadster Show in 2020. A very special thanks goes out to our friends ARP for helping make the AMBR and Al Slonaker Memorial award bigger and better than ever. This show would not have been possible without them! Until next year!
