Festival of Speed & Style

The Organizing Committee is already preparing for the Seventh Annual Old Town Festival of Speed & Style, scheduled for Sunday, May 17, 2026, with exciting new features planned to enhance the experience, elevate the event, and raise even more funds for Alexandria charities. 

The Old Town Festival of Speed & Style weekend begins with the High Octane Ball on Saturday night with an exceptional evening of sophistication and philanthropy at our Black & White–themed charity event.  Guests will be treated to a premier culinary experience, including gourmet hors d’oeuvres, a thoughtfully curated dinner, expertly crafted cocktails, fine wines, and an indulgent selection of desserts—setting the stage for meaningful conversations, new connections, and unforgettable moments. 

This annual weekend-long celebration is held in the heart of Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, along the lower blocks of King Street between Saint Asaph and Lee Street, just steps from the waterfront. Each year, the festival welcomes more than 40,000 car enthusiasts and spectators and has become one of the East Coast’s premier automotive showcases, attracting national and international attention and positioning Old Town Alexandria as a destination for unforgettable experiences.
