The Mainetti & Mainetti Uptown Car Show returns for its 5th year.

The Pugsly’s Barbershop Stage will be at the corner of North Front Street and Wall Street with bands playing for the afternoon.

Bring your friends and family to enjoy an afternoon full of cars, bikes, trucks, and entertainment in Uptown Kingston’s stockade district. We encourage spectators to enjoy the uptown shops and restaurants all within the show.

Awards for best in show will be chosen by show judges for 14 different categories with trophies. All spectators are welcome free of charge. All show cars, bikes, and trucks must purchase tickets.

2025 Cause

Nevaeh Storms, a local 8 year old girl, was viciously attacked by a dog requiring extensive medical treatment. Nevaeh underwent multiple surgeries including skin grafts to determine if she may ever be able to regrow hair.

All proceeds will go to Nevaeh and her family to help with medical expenses and support during this difficult time.
