What are the largest car events in New York?
The Grand Prix Festival in Watkins Glen, the Syracuse Nationals at the state fairgrounds, the New York International Auto Show at the Javits Center and the Buffalo Auto Show.
Why do only some New York events get a page?
Pages go to annual and multi-day events with posted dates and to past events with published winners; one-day shows stay on the calendar.
How far ahead do the New York dates reach?
To Sep 10, 2027, as published.
Where are New York results gathered?
Event by event, and side by side on the New York results page.
Do display spots sell out?
At festival classes and the bigger fairground shows they can, so check the organizer page early.
Is the public welcome?
Yes; each event page says whether a ticket is needed or entry is free.
What earns a New York event a page of its own?
Send its web page with the New York event form.
Might these dates change?
They match the host page on the checked date; plans shift, so confirm before you travel.
Why are there few 2027 New York shows so far?
Many New York hosts publish the next season over the winter; dates are added once their pages show them.

Know a car show that is not listed?
Send it here with a link to the organizer’s event page, flyer or schedule. Weekly and monthly ones only need to go in once. If that page shows the name and the date (or the day of the week), it goes on this page right away. If not, we check it by hand within a week.
We keep what you send so we can check the event. Your email is never published.
