The Ocean City Antique Auto Show brings more than 300 vintage and classic vehicles to the heart of downtown for a full morning of browsing and nostalgia. Held at the Ocean City Tabernacle Grounds at 6th Street and Asbury Avenue, the show features beautifully restored cars from a wide range of eras, drawing collectors, enthusiasts, and families alike.
After the show concludes, participating vehicles take part in a scenic boardwalk parade, offering spectators an additional chance to see these classic cars in motion. With the event located just steps from downtown shopping, visitors can easily make a day of it by exploring Asbury Avenue, including a stop at Stainton’s and nearby local shops.
This long-running Ocean City event is a favorite for auto enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys a lively, walkable downtown atmosphere.
