I feel like I’m constantly online looking for Niagara car and bike shows to attend because my son is 100% into cars at the moment. I know I can’t be the only parent out there googling for these events — so here is a list:
Niagara Falls Motorcycle Show
Start your engines! The second annual Niagara Falls Show & Shine will take place on Sunday, August 23rd from 12:00 pm to 9:00 pm in downtown Niagara Falls. The event is free to anyone who wants to show off their two-wheeled prized possessions, or for those who want to check out some sweet rides.
“We’re pleased to bring this event back to the Falls for a second straight year, and have added a few new offerings as part the Show,” said Chris Dabrowski, organizer for the event. “This year’s Show will feature food vendors along the street, as well as a licensed area where live bands will perform throughout the day.”
Riders are encouraged to park their bikes along Queen Street between St. Lawrence Avenue and Ontario Street. Registration is FREE, and trophies for best custom bike, best bike and best Harley will be handed out at the Show.
“Whether you’re a casual Sunday driver, a custom bike enthusiast, or someone who enjoys motorcycles but doesn’t necessarily own one, we’re encouraging everyone to come out for a fun afternoon in historic downtown Niagara Falls. There will be lots to see and do, and best of all, it’s free,” added Dabrowski.
Making an appearance during the Show will be former WWE Diva and TNA Knockout Champion, Christy Hemme. Christy will be signing autographs and taking photos with fans from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm at Cigar Experience, located at 4536 Queen Street.
