The Brookings Car Festival is an annual event sponsored by the Brookings Car Council. The second weekend in June has seen Brookings, SD filled with hot rods and muscle cars since 1993.
The event boasts hundreds of cars each year, and some of the best in live local talent, food, and fun. The all access Show & Shine gives everyone the opportunity to show off their prized ride, and the annual Poker Run proves these cars, trucks, and bikes are for more than just show.
Showing is a major part of the Festival, though, with over 31 classes of cars and trucks competing for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize trophies. Dash plaques, Judge’s Choice awards, and Cash Drawings round out the show.
