How much does it cost to register a vehicle for the car show?

 

It is a registration fee of $50 per vehicle for the two-day car show.

​

Is there a deadline for registering a vehicle for the car show?   

​
All vehicles must be pre-registered by Friday, October 21, 2022. Onsite registration will be available on a first come first serve basis only if slots are still available. Early registration is highly recommended as the car show will fill up fast and likely sell out before the deadline.

 

Once parked, can we move our cars and participate in only one day of the car show?   

​​

No, cars must remain in place and static during the two-day car show and may not be started or moved from the hours of 8am on October 29th and 5:30pm on Sunday, October 30th.  

 

Why can’t cars be moved or started during the show after 8am on the first day?  

​

There will be planes with jet fuel parked amongst the cars during the two-day car show and the airport requires there to be no moving cars as this can pose a fire hazard and/or explosion.

 

Will my car be safe out there?

​

Yes, 24-hour security will be high at the airport as there are planes parked among the cars, and because of the types of planes on the ramp. U.S.VETS will also have additional police coverage specifically for the car show.

 

Are there trophies and prizes for car registrants?    

​

Yes, we have quite a few car classes available for you to enter your vehicle in.  The classes are listed on the back of your entry form on the website at www.guitarsncars.org

 

Will we be able to see the air show?

​

Yes, all tickets allow access to the Wings Over Houston Airshow and give you the chance to watch the planes.  Guests who register their cars will receive two complimentary event passes for both days of the event.  

            

Can we bring lawn chairs, snacks and food?  

​

​Can we bring our family pet?
