About Cars on State

One of Madison's finest downtown summer traditions, the 15th Annual Classic Car Show will be held Saturday, June 1st. This free show spans six blocks of State Street in Downtown Madison. This family-friendly event offers a perfect day for everyone to come downtown, take a stroll around the Farmers Market on the Square and see a wonderful array of vintage cars. You can talk to the owners, grab a bite to eat, and shop at locally owned downtown businesses. Car enthusiasts can explore the history and unique characteristics of classic cars and trucks.

Interested in exhibiting your car?
Due to the limited space to display vehicles on State Street, only cars that have pre-registered will be admitted. We cannot accept any vehicles on the day of show.
