IT’S TIME TO GET AWAY
The 2024 Ontario Hot Rod Tour is scheduled for May 30 – June 2, 2024.
The Ontario Hot Rod Tour started in 2016. This annual event takes place on the first full weekend of June each year. We welcome all hot rods, street rods, muscle cars, customs and trucks along for the ride.
The tour is anywhere between 700km and 2000km long, depending on the year. It’s a way for car enthusiasts of all ages to meet new friends and explore our beautiful province. Our goal is to introduce you to some beautiful, new places that you can go back to and explore again and again.
The tour is what you make it. We provide you with official route maps and driving directions. You can follow along with us, or you can explore a little on your own and meet back up at the next official stop. The choice is always yours.
Thanks for your interest.
