North Palm Beach Recreation Department will hold their annual HOT CARS & CHILI on Saturday January 24, 2026. This is a great event that draws lots of classic cars out to the park for the community to enjoy. This year's car show will be held from Noon - 4pm at Anchorage Park in North Palm Beach.
Chili Cook-off
Chili vendors will provide a minimum of 5 gallons of chili. For a $5 wristband purchase, spectators can sample unlimited chili samples from each chili booth and then cast their vote for their favorite. All chili may be pre-cooked, but will be prepared at the event. Awards will be given and there will be beverages for purchase provided by the Friends of the NPB Library.
Open Car Show
The open car show draws just over 100 classic cars each year. A variety of prizes will be awarded including Participant's Choice, Staff's Choice, Mayor's Choice and the top NPB Resident Car award. The public can enjoy viewing an array of beautiful antique cars/trucks and even some newer models.
