ABOUT THE SHOW
INAGURAL INVITATIONAL SHOW - JUNE 15TH, 2024 - 12PM-5PM
The first of its kind in Portland; this vintage car, truck, van and motorcycle show will be set on the grounds of Lincoln Memorial Park Cemetery.
Vintage cars, trucks and vans will be parked on the main road within the cemetery past the original entry gates and in front of the beautiful Mausoleum. Motorcycles will be on a smaller meandering road near the cars that merges with and leads to the main show area.
Inspired by other amazing curated vehicle shows and being someone who wants to bring something a little bit different and unique to the community, we created the idea of this show and shine set in a cemetery. This is NOT your typical parking lot car show! All show vehicles will be pre-registered and on display all day. There is something beautiful and romantic about seeing vintage vehicles in a lush landscaped cemetery. We have partnered with the Lincoln Memorial Cemetery team to bring you the inaugural DEATH COMES SWIFTLY
Come for the show and stay to explore the full cemetery grounds. Walk through all four levels of the Mausoleum or take one of the many paths throughout the 400 acres at this cemetery. Some of the most incredible downtown city views are easily seen from the cemetery as well.
TROPHIES
We love trophies! We are partnering with local car and motorcycle companies or groups to sponsor their own award of choice that will be handed out at the day of the show!
We will also have a list of other trophy categories to hand out but these winners will all be chosen by the people! The whole reason we want to put this show on is to give back to the community and provide a cool event to come to so every spectator will have the opportunity to help choose the winners!
RAFFLES
Along with a 50/50 raffle, there will be a table full of amazing prizes from local artists, makers and good friends of the community that we will be giving away at the end of the day.
