The Fraser Valley Classic Car Show is a community event in Chilliwack that combines a passion for vintage automobiles with a great cause. Hosted as a fundraiser for Chilliwack General Hospital, the show features rows of unique vehicles and plenty of family-friendly fun.
In 2026 the Fraser Valley Classic Car Show takes place on Sunday, June 7th.
Fraser Valley Classic Car Show in Chilliwack
The Fraser Valley Classic Car Show welcomes a wide variety of collectible vehicles from the 20th century. Cars at the event range from elegant classics of the 1940s and 1950s to muscle cars and retro favourites from later decades. With dozens of vehicles on display, it’s a great opportunity for enthusiasts to admire restored vehicles, meet fellow collectors, and enjoy the stories behind each automobile.
Categories of vehicles at the event include classic imports, vintage motorcycles, and even car projects still in progress. Awards are handed out based on public voting, giving visitors a chance to cheer for their favourites.
Proceeds from the Fraser Valley Classic Car Show support the Chilliwack General Hospital Foundation, meaning every car entry and visitor donation goes toward local health care. Shows often also feature raffles and giveaways to help raise additional funds.

A Community Atmosphere
Unlike some larger car-related events, the Fraser Valley Classic Car Show maintains a friendly, small-town, community-focused vibe. It draws car owners, families, and casual visitors who enjoy seeing rare vehicles up close in an inviting outdoor setting.
The event takes place on the University of the Fraser Valley’s Chilliwack campus, with cars displayed across the parking lot and nearby lawns. Food trucks are usually on site, making it easy for guests to grab a bite while wandering around the park and admiring all the vehicle exhibits.
