The Syracuse Nationals, one of the largest car shows in the Northeast, is set to return to the New York State Fairgrounds from July 18-20, marking its 25th anniversary. The event will feature specialty car exhibits highlighting the past 25 years, celebrity meet-and-greets with automotive legends, live music and entertainment, an expanded vendor marketplace with over 40 new brands, and giveaways of limited-edition merchandise. Highlights include Supercar Sunday, a tribute to Gene Winfield, appearances by the cast of Count’s Kustoms, and iconic vehicles like the Batmobile and Mystery Machine. Co-owner Ed Levine credits the event's success to participant and fan support, promising an expanded celebration for this milestone year.

The "Culture and Chrome" car show, held in Fresno's Tower District on March 29, revitalized the local tradition by showcasing around 350 diverse vehicles, ranging from a 1923 Ford T Bucket to modern Harley Davidson motorcycles. Unlike past events that focused solely on pre-1975 classics, this meet embraced all makes and models, reflecting the district’s cultural diversity. Hosted by the Hot Rod Coalition, the event attracted thousands of attendees who enjoyed the cars, vendors, and social atmosphere. For some, like David Barron of the Pharaohs Car Club, the appeal lay in the camaraderie and stories shared among enthusiasts. Anthony Granata, organizer and Fresno State alumnus, aims to enhance future shows with more volunteers and a traditional display format.
