Classic Cars in Peachland: The Originals
Peachland's Classic Car Show is known for showcasing pre-1980 cars that transport you back in time. Imagine strolling along Beach Avenue, surrounded by beautifully restored vehicles that represent the pinnacle of automotive design from decades past.

The Heart of the Community
The show is organized by the Peachland Chamber of Commerce and a small but dedicated group of volunteers. These folks work tirelessly to ensure the event runs smoothly. On the day of the show, a larger group of volunteers will be on hand to assist both participants and visitors. Their efforts help create a welcoming and enjoyable experience for everyone. This event wouldn’t be possible without the support of the community, sponsors, and volunteers who come together to make it a success. If you're interested in getting involved, there's always a need for more volunteers.
