The 4 Best Car Shows in Canada

Importfest

If you’re looking to find a rare car part, hope to see the latest in automotive design or just want to hang out with others who share your passion for cars, a car show is a great place to do it. Canada is home to some of the best car shows, so you should have no trouble getting your automotive fix when you need it. Here’s a look at four of the best car shows in Canada.
 
Importfest
If you are into classic or modern imported cars, Importfest is the place to be. This annual event brings some of the best looking imported vehicles to the Toronto Convention Centre. It’s a huge show, so you’ll have plenty of opportunity to look for car parts, check out the latest the import manufacturers have to offer and catch up with with other import car enthusiasts.
 
Importfest takes place in August, so there’s plenty of time to make travel plans. If you live in the greater Toronto area or are located halfway across the country, Importfest is definitely worth the trip.

Canadian International Auto Show

This may be the mother of all car shows, and it’s one that Canadians look forward to all year long. The Canadian International Auto Show certainly lives up to its name – drawing automotive enthusiasts and eager buyers not only from Canada, but also from the United States and around the world.
 
This annual celebration of all things automotive takes place every February and is held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in the heart of Canada’s biggest city. Plan early – Toronto gets pretty crowded when all the auto fans come to town.

British Columbia Classic & Custom Car Show

If you love classic and custom cars, the British Columbia Classic & Custom Car Show is the place to be. Whether you are a B.C. resident or not, this celebration of classic automotive technology is well worth the trip.
 
The fun takes place in April, and the show is now in its 20th year. Visitors to the Tradex Convention Centre in Abbotsford can show off their rides in a variety of classes, shop for the perfect part or just enjoy hours browsing around the grounds.
 

Moparfest

If you are a Chrysler (and now Fiat) fan, the annual Moparfest is the place to be. Taking place every August in Hamburg, Ont., this annual celebration of Chrysler automobiles is the largest of its kind in the entire country. There are auctions, car shows, a huge parts corral and plenty of great things to see and do. If you’re a recent convert to the world of the Mopar or a lifelong fan, Moparfest is the place to be this August.
