Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about attending, registering a vehicle, sponsoring, and giving at Cars for Cops & Kids.
Attending
How much does it cost to attend?
Watching the show is free and open to the public. Bring the whole family — there are kids' activities, food vendors, and hundreds of cars to enjoy.
Where and when is the event?
Verdugo Park in Glendale, on the first Sunday of June. The 10th Annual show is Sunday, June 6, 2027, from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
Is parking available?
Yes. Spectator parking is available near Verdugo Park. Registered vehicles receive show-field placement directions by email before the event.
Registering
How do I enter my vehicle?
Use the Register Your Vehicle page. Registration covers your show spot, a goodie bag, and award eligibility. Space is limited and the 10th anniversary is expected to sell out early.
What kinds of vehicles can enter?
Classics, exotics, muscle, imports, Euros, lowriders, trucks, motorcycles and more. There's a class for nearly everyone — see the registration form for the full list.
What time should I arrive on show day?
Registered vehicles roll in early in the morning for placement before the gates open to the public. Exact load-in times are emailed to registrants.
Sponsoring
How do sponsorships work?
Sponsors fund the trophies, kids' activities and the youth programs the show supports — and get recognition on signage, the website and at the awards ceremony. See Become a Sponsor for tiers and benefits.
Can I sponsor a single trophy or award?
Yes — Trophy Sponsorships put your name on a specific award class and in the awards ceremony. It's a popular option for smaller local businesses.
Giving
Where does the money go?
Proceeds support Glendale Police Department youth programs and at-risk youth initiatives in the community. Since 2017 the show has raised more than $450,000.
