Saturday, September 12
Walk the show lanes and look at custom and classic motorcycles and autos up close, then dig through the rummage sale for vintage tees, riding gear, collectibles, patches, boots, and more. Free to attend, free to park, and you help pick the winners while you’re here. There's limited attendee parking in our paved lot, with overflow parking on the street and in the grass lot across from us.
The Motoshow
Custom and classic motorcycles and autos — bikes, trucks, and everything in between. Vote for your favorite. Best of Show and People’s Choice awards at 3pm.
The rummage sale
Vintage tees, riding gear, collectibles, patches, boots, and more. Bring cash — all sales are made directly with individual sellers.
The Brat Shed
The Knights of Columbus will have the Brat Shed open with food and drinks all day. All sales benefit the Knights of Columbus.
Lot opens
Sellers and show vehicles are all set up and in place. Come park and start walking the lot.
Voting closes
Everybody who walks the lot gets a vote. Pick up a ballot at the show table, mark your favorite bike and your favorite auto, and drop it in the box.
Awards
Best of Show and People's Choice, motorcycles and autos. Four awards, announced out in the lot.
Taking part
Sell something, or show something
Whether you're renting a space to sell or bringing a bike or auto for the show, check-in runs 7:30 to 9:00 AM at the Registration Tent at the McCarthy parking lot entrance. Pull in, we'll get you squared away, and we'll show you where to park.
Check-in opens
Sellers and show vehicles both. Registration Tent, McCarthy parking lot entrance.
Check-in closes
Sellers should be set up and ready by now — shoppers tend to arrive before nine.
Sell at the rummage sale
One space is one standard parking stall, 9 by 18 feet. Need more room? Buy a second one.
Reserve a spaceEvery $20 space fee goes straight to Menasha tornado relief. Rent a space, clear out the closet, help somebody rebuild.
Show your bike or auto
Bring something honest. Built, chopped, bobbed, restored, or just old enough to have stories. Finished or not, rough or clean — if you put work into it or kept it alive, we'd love to see it. No pre-registration; sign up at the show table the morning of.

Sellers: what to bring
- Cash and change. Small bills go quickly, so it helps to come with more than you think you'll need.
- Tables and chairs. We aren't able to provide these, so plan on bringing your own.
- Hangers or a rack if you're selling tees, leathers, or anything else that hangs better than it folds.
- Bags for your buyers.
- Everything else you need to set up your space the way you want it. Whatever it takes to display and sell your items, plan on bringing it with you — we aren't able to supply anything on site.
Everything you bring will need to fit inside your painted lines, and you're welcome to keep your vehicle parked in your space — it just counts toward the 9 × 18. If that's tight, a second space is always an option.

The event runs in our paved lot, where all Motoshow vehicles and rummage stalls are set up. Some attendee parking is available there, but it fills fast — overflow parking is on the street and in the grass lot directly across from us.
