The Cars and Bids Festival is a morning meet at a museum. The Petersen’s listing: Sunday 22 November 2026, 9am to noon, at 6060 Wilshire Boulevard, with two prices: “Display Vehicle $35,” which includes parking validation and museum general admission, and “Spectator $0.”
Showing a car
Register a car for display through the Petersen’s page. The $35 covers the garage validation and a museum ticket, which on its own is most of that price. The lot is the museum’s own structure on Fairfax; spectators pay the museum’s garage rate.
Before you go
Register early; display spaces at the Petersen are counted in dozens, not hundreds. Stay for the museum, since the car you drove in paid for it.
