Classic Autos Cruise into Napa Valley for Father’s Day

V Marketplace celebrates the “art of the driving machine”

 

The Napa Valley will proudly welcome car connoisseurs from around the Bay Area and beyond as V Marketplace in Yountville, hosts the 20th Annual Father’s Day Invitational Auto Show on Sunday, June 20 from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Auto entries are by invitation. The event is free to the public.

 

From the national champions, to the local favorites, to the one-of-a-kind collector curiosities, Packard, Porsche, Ford, Ferrari, Mercury, Muntz and more, top a list of more than 120 early and late model autos spanning over 90 years of production!

 

This non-competitive, open-class invitational exhibition is the perfect gift for Father’s Day. Whether nostalgia means rolling down the road in a classic 1928 Model A Phaeton, sliding into the drive-in with a ’57 Chevy, or cruising the fast lane in a Porsche Turbo, this show-stopping collection presents some of the finest autos to grace the highway in any era!

 

Make it a Father’s Day weekend escape to Napa Valley! Surrounded by lush picnic gardens, beautiful water features, and meandering cobblestone walkways, V Marketplace, provides a breathtaking backdrop for this annual event. Visitors can look forward to a unique variety of distinctive specialty shops, galleries, restaurants, a complete wine tasting cellar, hot air ballooning and Michael Chiarello’s NapaStyle and Bottega Ristorante, all housed within and around the historic 140-year-old Groezinger Winery Complex.
