Hot August Nights
Citywide
August 6 - 11, 2013
During Hot August Nights, cars are “cherry” and cruisin’ is “cool.”
It’s the largest classic car and nostalgia event in the United States with venues spread across the Reno Sparks area. Cars are the stars and rock ‘n’ roll rules through the dozens of concerts, controlled cruises, show ‘n’ shines, a sock hop and much more! Plenty of shopping can be found at the Big Boy Toy Store and Hot Augusts Nights Swap Meet.
The event will begin with full day of activities on Tuesday, August 6 with show-n-shines, cruising and entertainment, and will conclude on Sunday, August 11th after our parade of cars. You don’t have to own a classic car to be an enthusiastic participant of Hot August Nights.
A detailed event and entertainment schedule will be available in July. Past entertainers have included: Blood, Sweat & Tears, Neil Sedaka, The Village People, Paul Revere & The Raiders, Herman's Hermits Starring Peter Noone, Sonny Turner, and many more great entertainers from the '50s, '60s & '70s.
