Attending at least one car show is basically a rite of passage as a Lakelander. This year’s MIDFLORIDA Auto Show & Lake Mirror Concours is happening October 18-20 in downtown Lakeland – and it’s the special 20th anniversary of the free annual car show, presented by MIDFLORIDA Credit Union.
If you haven’t been before, the show exhibits hundreds of hobby and collector vehicles over the course of three days in downtown Lakeland, drawing 35,000+ spectators and top car collectors from the Southeast.
And while all of these vintage and souped-up automobiles are pretty fun to look at, there are lots of *other* things to do, like hitting up Friday night’s Budweiser Hot Rod Rendezvous, benefitting Boys & Girls Clubs of Polk County, Sunday morning’s Road Rally, or all of the food trucks on-site Saturday.
See the three-day event overview here, and a more detailed schedule here. Event FAQs here.
