A The gates will open at 7:00am for vehicles entered in the show and will close promptly at 10:00am

Q:  Will there be day-of-show registration?

Q:  Will the show vehicles be allowed to put up any pop-up tents, canopies, or umbrellas?
AUnfortunatey, no they may not.  This is due to safety and liability issues that may arise.  There have been many instances in the past where one of these items have toppled and caused damage to a display vehicle.  We do, however, allow hand-held umbrellas.  If the weather is sunny and hot, we advise anyone attending to plan accordingly.

Q:  Can I bring my dog to the show?
AWhile we love our four-legged friends, Knott's Berry Farm has a very strict policy regarding pets on the premises, however they do allow service animals (note: service animals are not the same as "comfort" animals).  Please be mindful of the weather on the day of the show.  Remember, their paws burn quickly on hot pavement.  Please be considerate of your pets.
