Saratoga Classic Car Show

Over 200 colorful classic and cool cars will gather along Big Basin Way in historic Saratoga as part of the Fifth Annual Cool and Classic Car show.  Sponsored by the Saratoga Chamber of Commerce and the Cool Car Club of Saratoga, the event runs from 10 AM to 5 PM on Sunday, July 20.  Beer garden, wine, food trucks, craft vendors, raffle prizes, and live bands all add up to a fun-packed day for people of all ages.

Admission is free to enjoy over 200 American and international cars ranging from the 1920′s, to the classics of the 50′s and 60′s, as well as modern exotics. Vintage as well as electric motorcycles will also be on display. Visitors can enjoy seeing some of the hottest cars, hearing live music, lunching at one of the many Saratoga restaurants or sampling the wares of food trucks.  Allow time to shop at the many boutiques, as well as to peruse the special vendors. Check out the beer garden and quaff an ice cold beer or glass of wine during the day. Live radio broadcasts piped in along with live music from such favorite bands as Nigel and Clive and the British Invasion provide additional entertainment.

For the first time this year, a Tri-City “Cool Car” cruise between Saratoga, Campbell and Los Gatos will take place the day before to get the cities “geared” up according to Cool Car Club President Tiger Teerlink. Also new this year will be the opportunity to vote for your favorite cool car.


Over 150 raffle prizes have been gathered offering the opportunity to win something special while donating to a good cause. Prizes include gift cards to popular restaurants, car wash coupons, to large expensive items.  The money will go towards funding next year’s car show as well as covering the Chamber of Commerce operational expenses.

Cars can be registered by going to CoolCarClub.com or SaratogaChamber.org.  You can also call the President of the Cool Car Club Tiger Teerlink at 408-828-9614 or the Saratoga Chamber of Commerce at 408-867-0753 for more information.
