The 51st Annual Street Rod Nationals East Rolls into York County June 6-8, 2025
The 51st Annual Street Rod Nationals East is set to return to York County from June 6–8, 2025, bringing thousands of visitors and more than 3,000 custom and vintage vehicles to the York Expo Center.
As one of the largest and longest-running events of its kind on the East Coast, the Nationals celebrate over five decades of automotive history and innovation. More than 10,000 car enthusiasts are expected to attend this high-energy weekend, which features a dynamic mix of classic craftsmanship, custom builds, and family-friendly fun.
This year’s event lineup includes the Builders’ Showcase East, the eye-catching Streets of Rods, and the adrenaline-pumping Nitro Fest drag car demos. Guests can also enjoy live entertainment on Friday and Saturday nights, games for all ages, a charity pin striping event, an automotive swap meet, and creative contests for quilts, model cars, and more. Industry seminars, safety inspections, and Sunday’s awards program—including three $2,000 cash sweepstakes prizes —add even more excitement to the weekend.
“There aren’t many events where car lovers can experience this level of history and craftsmanship all in one place,” said Laura Wagner, President of Explore York. “Whether you're a first-time attendee or a longtime fan, you're sure to discover something truly special. This event is a highlight of the year for both residents and visitors, and we’re proud to welcome it back to York County.”
