Remarks: MN Cars & Coffee was founded in 2008 by Luis Fraguada and Tyler Christopherson. After returning from a stint in Arizona, Luis reunited with his best friend and fellow car enthusiast Tyler, and together they decided to create “MN CARS & COFFEE” to organize a local gathering of car enthusiasts that share their love of automobiles.
Luis and Tyler created MN C&C to unite the local car community with an event that appeals to every motor-head. We are fortunate to have some good car shows in the area, but they tend to be a specific marque or genre of automobile. They wanted to create a car show that features EVERYTHING: Italian Exotics, American Muscle, British Classics, Japanese Tuners, and many more can be seen each month at the shows.
The event started at a small coffee shop in Minnetonka with only 35 cars. Word spread quickly, and by August there were over 200 cars. The huge success of the event necessitated a move to a garage complex in Chanhassen. The show had grown to over 1,000 show cars and 10,000+ spectators each month.
In 2017, the show took another huge step forward, moving to Canterbury Park in Shakopee, MN. The attendance has now doubled, with the summer shows drawing 20,000+ spectators. This new expansion has also allowed us to feature 4,000+ show cars. Plus, we now offer a myriad of food trucks at each show, so come hungry.
Always held on the FIRST SATURDAY of each month (April- Oct), this show is the largest monthly car gathering in the country!
Lastly, it’s important to them that the event is FREE to the participants and spectators. It’s important that ANY car enthusiast can enjoy the show without having to pay to do so. Also, the events are rain or shine, so dress appropriately.
