The car show is open to the public, so bring your favorite car, truck, or bike/trike and help support your community!! We ask that you be generous in your donations of new, unwrapped toys for boys and girls in the Hampton Roads area.

Toys for Tots Toy Collection by the USMC is from 9:00am until 2:30 pm, when the awards presentation begins. – Car Show from 10:00a.m until 3:00p.m. – Registration for the Car Show and the Drive Through Toy Drop-Off Lane will both open at 9:00 a.m. Registration for the Car Show closes at 1:00 PM. Judging will be completed by 1:30 PM.

We invite you to participate as an entrant or spectator, but if you cannot, there will be a Drive-Through Drop Off Lane for the community to make in person donations at the Toy Collection Event site!! To that end, please pass the word to family, friends, and coworkers to help us collect as many toys as possible and other donations that we can, in order to support the kids in Hampton Roads this holiday season!!! Please keep in mind that all donations are kept and disbursed here in the Hampton Roads area, so we’re supporting our own community.

Admission: The registration fee for vehicles entering the car show is $20, plus at least 1 new, unwrapped toy, for donation to the Toys for Tots Hampton Roads program. The first 100 registered vehicles will receive a Dash Plaque for the show. We will be keeping tally of the number of toys donated by each registrant and club/group. There is NO Pre-Registration for this show. All registration payments and toy collections will happen at the show site. There is no charge for spectators to visit the show area, but we do ask that you make a toy or monetary donation to Toys for Tots while visiting. Again, please ignore any messages you may see asking you to pre-register, as the MCT does not do pre-registration.

Toy/Monetary Donations: There will be a designated drive through drop-off lane for community members to donate toys at the show location. If you can’t make it to the event, you can make a monetary donation directly to TFT by scanning the QR Code on the event flyer. All donations will directly support operations in the Hampton Roads area. Music and Announcements: Will be provided by DJ Vinlo!
