Time to Gear up for the 18th Annual Goleta Fall Classic Car Show at The Goleta Lemon Festival – Saturday September 27

Calling all Central Coast car enthusiasts! Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 27, as the 18th Annual Goleta Fall Classic Car Show presented by Ruth Ann Bowe – Village Properties races back into The Goleta Lemon Festival. This year’s event will be a real showstopper, featuring a stunning lineup of classic cars, trucks, pickups, and more.

Start your engines and get ready for a showcase of true automotive artistry. From gleaming chrome to timeless curves, this year’s Goleta Fall Classic is a citrus-charged automotive celebration of the craftsmanship and spirit that make these vehicles unforgettable. Stroll the rows, meet passionate owners, and hear the unique stories that keep these classics on the road. This year’s show is so bright you’ll want to cruise by twice.

The event culminates with the awards ceremony for the following categories – no lemons here:

  • 1930–1939 All Makes & Models
  • 1940–1949 All Makes & Models
  • Stock (All Models)

Special recognitions will also be awarded for Bitchin’ Paint, Best Interior, and—new this year—Fan Favorite.
