The first Saturday of each month, Broadway Street in the Historic Ace District in Downtown Cave City, KY, becomes home to one of the biggest car shows in the region. Stroll the streets and take in the sites as cars and trucks from every year and class line the main roads and alleyways.
Each event features live music and entertainment, custom event merchandise, and “people’s choice” showcase awards made by Rustic Revival. Ace Coffee Co. serves coffee and breakfast, and they also have a retail area to shop. Rolaid’s Food Truck will be there with the best tenderloin biscuit you’ve ever had. The Dive opens up early with Bloody Mary’s and Mimosa’s. Dueling Grounds and Balance Distilling will be open with their retail room, cocktail lounge, and tasting area where you can try their Kentucky-produced Bourbon and spirits.

This easy and fun morning auto show hosts not just cars but also a wide variety of local vendor sponsors, giving families many more options for things to do while visiting.
THE ROADS ARE CLOSED FOR THROUGH TRAFFIC, ensuring the safety of not just the crowds but the unique and rare cars that brought them there.
