Hot Rod Power Tour 2025

The 31st Annual HOT ROD Power Tour 2025 is gearing up to hit five Midwest venues this June, including stops at the Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois, and the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

America’s largest traveling car show brings more than 6,000 cars and trucks of all years, makes, and models on display for tens of thousands of automotive enthusiasts during this incredible event.

“HOT ROD Power Tour is a staple summer automotive journey that is truly one of a kind,” said Eric Schwab, Chief Commercial Officer of MotorTrend Group. “We are proud of the event’s legacy and how it has continued to grow over the years, and 2025 looks to be another historic run.”

The five-city tour will feature more than 1,000 miles of driving, with high-octane events like drag racing, autocross, and live entertainment. Register here today!

“Last year was very successful as we experienced over 65% growth of new participants. We’re excited about this year’s tour route, giving participants a unique and fun experience while visiting historic Midwest cities and venues,” said Mike Galimi, HOT ROD network director.

Launched in 1995 by the HOT ROD magazine staff to connect with readers, HOT ROD Power Tour 2025 is widely considered the finest high-end hot rod–based automotive tour in the world. This popular event for car and truck lovers has visited 37 U.S. states and covers an average of 1,000+ miles each year. Classic cars and hot rods travel city to city while car lovers and HOT ROD editors and photographers follow alongside the tour, all cruising through small-town America like one big family reunion road trip. Participants can join for one day, two days, or join for all five days.
