55th Annual Twin Cities Roadster's Swap Meet

About Event

The 55th Twin Cities Roadster's Swap Meet roars back to the North End of the Minnesota State Fairgrounds on Sunday, October 4th, 2026! Gates open at the crack of dawn — 6:00 AM — giving early birds first pick of parts, memorabilia, and automotive treasures spread across hundreds of vendor spaces. Pre-1949 roadster and convertible owners score FREE VIP parking and admission when they enter through the Swap Gates. General admission is just $10 at the gate (children under 12 free with a paid adult), and vendor spaces are $20 each with additional passengers at $10 each — making this one of the Midwest's most accessible and iconic swap meets. Rain or shine, this 55-year tradition is a must-attend for hot rod enthusiasts, collectors, and vintage car lovers across the Twin Cities region.

AutoShowList lists this show — we don't run it. We are a directory. We are not the organizer, not a sponsor, and not affiliated with whoever puts this event on, and no money you pay at the show comes to us.

The dates, times, fees and other details here come from the organizer's own flyer, website or posts. Organizers change plans, and some details are never published at all — where something says Not listed, it means we have not been told, not that it is free or does not apply.

Questions about the event itself — entry and gate fees, refunds, judging, vendor spots, rain plans, what time to roll in — go to the organizer, using the contact links on this listing. We cannot answer for them or refund anything they charge.
