Classic Car Show

The 30th Annual La Mesa Classic Car Show & Live Music Event rolls into downtown La Mesa beginning June 6th through August 29th, every Thursday from 5 - 8 pm. Visitors can stroll down La Mesa Blvd. to see beautiful classic cars, trucks, and vans (located between 4th St. - Spring St.) and listen to live music every week from local bands that play atop the iconic La Mesa Lumber truck "stage" located at 3rd & La Mesa Blvd. + a DJ, also from 5 - 8 pm!

To celebrate the 30th year of this beloved La Mesa event, we'll have 30th anniversary hats + we're hosting (3) theme nights* (one each month) where attendees are encouraged to dress up in the style of the band playing that night (see below), and fun new bands in addition to local favorites!

This is a FREE, family-friendly community event! Come out and celebrate summer with family & friends. And, be sure to dine, shop & explore all that La Mesa Village has to offer while you're here!
