Hot Rod Power Tour 2026 - June 9

It’s been years in the making, and now it’s official; the 2026 HOT ROD Power Tour will cruise along legendary Route 66 as the world’s largest rolling automotive festival helps celebrate 100 years of America’s most famous roadway. The Power Tour runs June 8–12, 2026, starting in Illinois and ending in Oklahoma, following one of the most nostalgic and culturally important stretches of pavement in American history. Along with the 1,000 miles of driving and high-octane events, spectators can enjoy autocross and live entertainment. America’s largest traveling car show brings more than 6,000 cars and trucks of all years, makes, and models to this incredible event.
