Hot August Nights 2024 "Let's Roll"

Hot August Nights is the largest nostalgic classic car show in the U.S. and so much more. Bringing a more than $100 million economic impact to the northern Nevada region, the 37th annual city-wide event encompasses six venues with 5,500 registered participants rolling into the Reno-Sparks community for 10 days, attracting more than 500,000 spectators. To the car enthusiast community, it’s a big deal and for good reason. For the 2024 event taking place Aug. 2 to Aug. 11, organizers are focused on venue enhancements and creating memorable experiences for attendees and participants alike.
There’s really nothing like Hot August Nights anywhere else. Certainly, there are classic car shows and there are a handful that pull in big numbers, but Hot August Nights is the only one that takes over an entire town for 10 days with classics at every turn, at six different venues with Show-n-Shines, free nightly entertainment, cruises, swap meet, an auction, reserved experiences, a poker run and more. Anyone who has ever attended knows that you can’t go anywhere in the Reno-Tahoe region without hearing and feeling the motors of thousands of classics growling. It’s something special.”
