Orange Plaza Rotary Car Show Celebrates 30 Years in Old Towne

One of Orange’s most anticipated annual events returns as the Orange Plaza Rotary hosts its 30th Anniversary Car Show, bringing hundreds of classic cars to the streets of Old Towne.

The event transforms the Plaza into a showcase of more than 400 vehicles, from vintage classics to custom builds, lining Chapman and Glassell with chrome, color, and the unmistakable rumble of engines. It’s a favorite for car enthusiasts and families alike, offering a chance to walk through rows of historic vehicles while enjoying the surrounding shops and restaurants.

More than just a car show, the event serves as a major fundraiser supporting local youth programs. Proceeds go toward leadership development, mentorship, education, and community service initiatives that benefit young people throughout the City of Orange.

For residents, it’s a full-day community experience that blends history, culture, and local pride in one of the city’s most iconic settings.

The Car Show takes place Sunday, May 3 from 9 AM to 3 PM at the Orange Plaza, located where Chapman Ave and Glassell St meet in Old Towne Orange.
