The official car show of the Maple Leaf Festival.

The Maple Leaf Car Show grew from a small group of local hot rodders who drove their cars in the parade and parked around the square for the remainder of the day, to a grand scale car show drawing in cars from all over the region.  On warm sunny days, car show goers can expect to see upwards of 600 cars.  For participants there are 30 categories to enter your vehicle in.  Each registered car owner, will be provided a ballot to judge the other cars.  Trophies are awarded in each category.
Each year features a custom t-shirt available for purchase and a dash plague that is given to the first 400 cars to register.
