“I think it’s great to be able to bring history to life with classic and antique cars. “I absolutely love Hot August Nights because I’ve been going since I was little, and I’m excited for Hayden to experience it,” she said about bringing her little girl to the show for the first time.

One Reno local mother, Sanam Kowalski, said she’s excited to check out Hot August Nights this month with her husband and their daughter.

“We have a huge stage in the parking lot, you can bring your lawn chair, there are a ton of vendors with food, beverage, and all sorts of Hot August Nights items for sale.” “The best part is that all of the entertainment is free,” Abraham said. Guests can enjoy live music from a Journey tribute band, Johnny Rivers, Rick Springfield, and closing the event will be Joan Jett & the Blackhearts. “At the headquarter hotel we strive to provide the best entertainment and will have a DJ every day, an opening band at 5 p.m., and the headliner band at 8:15 p.m.,” he said. “This is the most exciting Hot August Nights entertainment lineup ever,” Abraham said. Thousands of slick rides will cruise through the Grand Sierra parking lot and be parked on display, with their owners available to mingle and talk shop with admirers.īetween showing beautiful classic cars, live entertainment will take to the large outdoor stage. “The event is unparalleled, really, when it comes to a celebration of old and classic automobiles.” “It’s an event that you have to go to at least once, regardless of who you are, but if you love automobiles then it’s something you have to go to every year,” said Chris Abraham, vice president of marketing at the Grand Sierra Resort and Casino. Hot rods, poodle skirts, good music, and carnival eats - could there be anything better? For four days, Reno’s Grand Sierra Resort transforms into the premier destination for lovers of classic cars and rock ’n’ roll.
