14th Annual Main Street Father's Day Car Show

Presented by Horgan Insurance and Hyannis Collision

Hyannis Area Chamber of Commerce
Father’s Day Main Street Car Show

Hyannis, Massachusetts, the largest town on Cape Cod, is a popular vacation spot and the quaint shops and eateries in its downtown area are always bustling with activity. For the last 13 years on Father’s Day, Main Street Hyannis has drawn a much larger crowd than normal, thanks to its annual car show, an all-volunteer effort organized by the Hyannis Area Chamber of Commerce and co-sponsored by Horgan Insurance Agency and Hyannis Collision.

Each year, Main Street is closed to through traffic and over 350 specialty cars are displayed along the street. The 2007 show, the 13th annual event, brought vehicles from all over New England as well as New York. Local police estimate that almost 50,000 spectators came out to admire the sea of colorful sheet metal. Food vendors and other activities are also featured, and the event runs from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., with the street opening up to regular traffic by 2 p.m. It is free to spectators and a great family day of fun!

The Hyannis Village Green Marketplace, sponsored by The Steamship Authority, will be abuzz with merchants, give-aways and activities for the whole family, even the dog!

After 13 years, the show has developed quite a following and often sells out to participants weeks before the show, with each participant receiving a collectible dash plaque and goodie bag. Due to parking limitations, only 350 pre-registration applications are accepted each year, and there are no vehicles newer than 25 years old (1983 and older).
