Car show on rodeo drive on 15/6

Hi my husband is a car fanatic and is thinking of going tomorrow. Has anyone any suggestions or tips on best time to arrive thanks

The car show on Rodeo Drive is a popular event for automotive enthusiasts and tends to draw both locals and tourists. Planning your visit strategically can make the experience much more enjoyable.

Here are some tips for attending:

  • Arrive Early: For the best views and to avoid crowds, plan to arrive around 9:00–10:00 AM, especially if you want to see rare or high-end vehicles before the main crowd arrives.
  • Parking: Parking near Rodeo Drive can be limited. Consider using nearby public garages such as the Rodeo Drive or Two Rodeo Drive parking structures. Arriving early also gives you more options for convenient parking.
  • Photography: If your husband wants to take photos, early morning provides softer lighting and fewer people in the background.
  • Food and Drinks: While the focus is the cars, there are nearby cafes and restaurants. You might plan a short coffee break before or after the show, especially if attending with family.
  • Security and Rules: Follow event signage and barriers; some high-value cars may be roped off, and security personnel may enforce no-touch policies.
  • Walking Shoes: Rodeo Drive can get crowded, so wear comfortable shoes for walking up and down the street and exploring nearby shops if interested.

Timing-wise, the show often runs until early afternoon. Arriving early ensures you see everything without rushing and avoids the busiest period, which is usually late morning to early afternoon. If the goal is just to see the spectacle, mid-morning is ideal.

Extra tip: Check the event’s official social media or website for any last-minute updates, such as street closures or special featured cars, to maximize your visit.
