If you love cars, then you’re going to want to head down to the Water Street District for Henderson Hot Rod Days, Friday and Saturday, October 6th and 7th.

Classic Cars, Live Entertainment, And It’s Free!

What’s better than a fun, free classic car event? Basically, nothing! So, get the family together, get your car-lovin’ friends together, and fire up your engines. Then, head on down to Water Street and Water Street Plaza the weekend of October 6-7.

According to CityOfHenderson.com, you can expect to see over 500 amazing classic cars, custom autos, muscle cars, trucks and motorcycles on display. The Boulder City Cruisin’ Association and the City of Henderson team up for this awesome auto show every fall. The event is free and open to the public.

Of course, there will be plenty of live entertainment throughout this two-day event. The featured performers are Texas blues rockers, The Fabulous Thunderbirds! They’ll be rockin’ the main stage at Water Street Plaza Friday night, October 7th at 8pm. Remember this big 1980’s hit?

Here Are The Details For This Year’s Henderson Hot Rod Days

First of all, if you own a classic, custom, or muscle, car, truck or motorcycle, you need to pre-register with the Boulder City Cruisin’ Association by clicking here. The cost is $35 dollars before September 30th, and $50 dollars thereafter.

Secondly, the hours for this year’s event are from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday. Then, Saturday, Henderson Hot Rod Days gets going from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The show will finish up with an awards presentation Saturday evening at 6 p.m. on East Army Street in Henderson.

Thirdly, you should know that they get a big crowd down on Water Street during Hot Rod Days. If you live in the area, organizers ask that you walk, bike, or scooter to the event. There is public parking, but it is limited. If you’re driving from outside the Water Street area, organizers urge you to carpool or rideshare if possible. Passengers may be dropped off at 58 South Water Street with access off Pacific Avenue.

Fourthly, this is a family-friendly event, so feel free to bring your kids. However, children 16 and under must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Furthermore, it’s a good idea to take a photo of your child at the event. That way, if the little tyke gets lost in the big crowd, your child will be easier to identify.

Remember you cannot bring in any outside alcohol, food, refreshments, or coolers. However, there will be plenty of food and drink available for purchase at the event. Moreover, many of the spots along Water Street will be offering special deals to those attending Henderson Hot Rod Days. Enjoy!
