Welcome
Iwould like to personally welcome all of you to the 33rd annual AutoXpo. Covid put a real damper on us a few years ago, but 2023 came back with a big welcome and a great turnout. We have a great crew again this year plus a few new faces. They all make this show run like clockwork and make me look good. We hope everyone enjoys the show, our great weather and the fantastic people who help put this show on.

I also would like to thank all of the participants that help us put on this show. We wouldn’t have a show without you. The car people that spend so much time getting their cars ready to show, to the hit & misses, swap meet, and artisan vendors. Alot of you drive a long way to come here, and it is much appreciated.
I can’t say enough about the many people that come out to volunteer for one or two days of our weekend. These volunteers are not only from Fortuna, but from the other neighboring townships. Our 15 AutoXpo committee members work year round in the planning, but grows to an additional 100 at show time. To everyone, I say have a great weekend.
Respectfully
Ryan Walters

Fortuna Redwood AutoXpo is all about cars, from hot rods to classic cars and trucks, newer model vehicles, and more.
You won’t want to miss the Friday night cruise and Friday night dance, all the cars on display in downtown Fortuna on Saturday, the Show and Shine vehicles on display at the Fortuna Union High School parking lot,
and of course the winners, as they drive through Rohner Park Sunday morning to collect their awards. But there are many other, perhaps less well-known events that also
AutoXpo Has Many Activities Going On
take place during Fortuna redwood AutoXpo.
Fortuna’s Rohner Park has plenty to see and do during Fortuna Redwood AutoXpo. There are the hit and miss antique gas engines and antique tractors on display. It is also where the artisan fair is held, where the swap meet and car corral is located, and where the tractor pull happens on Saturday, July 20th.
In recent years, Fortuna Redwood AutoXpo has added, and will again have this year, the showing of a drive-in movie Saturday night in Rohner Park. The movie this year will be Bullitt, starring Steve McQueen.
Admission is free to the drive-in movie and the showing begins at 8 p.m.
You might work up an appetite walking around downtown looking at all the vehicles. To grab a bite, stop by the food vendors at 13th and Main Streets.
Fortuna Redwood AutoXpo Committee president Ryan Walters said, “Our ‘friendly city” nickname is well earned and the atmosphere it creates for our participants and visitors during our event is often remarked upon. We also appreciate what the community does in support of our event,” he added.
