FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Where can I buy the discounted tickets?

O’Reilly Auto Parts stores are located throughout the US.  Check your local listings to see a store near you.  If there is not an O’Reilly store near you, you can always purchase the discounted ticket voucher at an O’Reilly store in California just before you get to the show.

When is the best day to come?

Every day is a great day! Friday has less foot traffic and is great for those who want to avoid large crowds. This is the best day to meet many of the vehicle builders and car owners. On Saturday and Sunday the grounds will be filled with our outdoor “Autorama Drive-In” cars. These cars will fill in between the buildings to give our guests an outdoor car show along with the indoor car show. This is a rain or shine event.

Can I leave the event and come back?

You must get your hand stamped at the gate to re-enter. However, once you leave the parking lot you will have to purchase another parking ticket to re-enter.
