The Little Car Show

The Little Car Show is a free, charming counterpoint to the supercars of Monterey Car Week, taking over downtown Pacific Grove with 125 small and unusual cars: mini, micro, steam, electric, and arcane vehicles of 1800cc or less, all at least 25 years old. It's put on by the nonprofit Marina Motorsports, and entry donations go to charity.

Wednesday, August 12, 2026, noon to 5pm, on Lighthouse Avenue in downtown Pacific Grove. Free to walk for spectators. It's during Monterey Car Week, so the area is busy, plan parking.
