MotorCars on MainStreet Returns to Coronado Island May 4, 2025; LCOC Welcome!

LCOC is encouraging and inviting you to register your pre-1980 Lincolns and Marks for one of San Diego’s oldest and best car events—this year’s 36th Annual MotorCars on MainStreet, Sunday May 4, 2025 on Coronado Island.

We are shooting for extensive club support so we can pre-stage nearby, enter as a group to proudly wave LCOC’s banner at this show and compete for individual and club awards. Registrants receive a free event T-shirt and raffle tickets good for chances to win numerous prizes. Registration fee for car owners is $50.

The event is entirely free for spectators, and all are welcome to join in on the fun — from vintage cars to state-of-the-art technology, live music, raffles, and more. 

 If we generate enough out-of-town interest we will book a block of rooms at a local hotel and add more events on the day before the show. If you are planning to attend, please register below, contact Elayne Bendel at epbendel@sbcglobal.net and Marjo Miller at miller.marjo@gmail.com and indicate your interest in a hotel and/or pre-event (Saturday) activities.

Please visit https://www.coronadomainstreet.org/motorcars to register and for more information. Early bird registration closes April 10.

MotorCars on MainStreet isn’t just a car show—it’s an experience—an extraordinary celebration of classic and custom automobiles. In 2024 it featured over 400 pre-73 restored classic cars and trucks, live music, commemorative T-shirts, a raffle, and an award ceremony. The streets were filled with a variety of classic, custom, electric, and exotic vehicles, alongside countless car enthusiasts eager to discuss their passion.

This year, MainStreet anticipates an even bigger and better event. This year’s show will feature 1980 and older restored antiques, classics, rods, and custom cars, trucks, and Lowriders for the first time showcasing the craftsmanship, passion, and history that make these vehicles so iconic. The show will run Sunday, May 4, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Isabella and Orange Avenues.
