SULLIVAN — The 25th edition of the Syracuse Nationals will include the Batmobile, George Jetson’s flying car, Scooby-Doo’s Mystery Machine, and the return of the American Motor Drome Co. Wall of Death.

They’re among the attractions for this summer’s event, which is described as one of the largest car shows in the Northeast. It’ll welcome car enthusiasts, families, and visitors July 18-20 at the New York State Fairgrounds in Geddes.

Organizers on April 3 announced show details at DaVerne Breed’s Garage at 7992 Devaul Road in Kirkville (town of Sullivan in Madison County).

This year’s show will include specialty-car exhibits showcasing the best of the past 25 years; giveaways and contests featuring limited-edition 25th-anniversary merchandise; and a tribute to American automobile designer Gene Winfield with the introduction of the Gene Winfield Legacy Award and a mini-museum inside the Expo Center.

Since its inception, the Syracuse Nationals has featured thousands of classic cars, hot rods, muscle cars, and custom builds.

This year’s event will feature an exciting lineup of special exhibits, celebrity appearances, live entertainment, and interactive experiences for attendees of all ages.

It’ll also include an expanded vendor marketplace with top brands in the automotive industry. More than 40 new industry-related vendors have been added for this year’s event.

The weekend will also include Supercar Sunday, which features high-end supercars with a special photo opportunity, raising money for the Skaneateles Cares Car Club’s initiative to build a car-themed playground at Upstate Golisano Children’s Hospital.

“Reaching 25 years is a huge accomplishment, and we couldn’t have done it without the incredible support of our participants, vendors, sponsors, and fans,” Ed Levine, co-owner of the Syracuse Nationals, said in the announcement. “This year’s Syracuse Nationals will be bigger and better than ever, celebrating the passion and dedication of the car community.”

Paradise Galaxy LLC, a joint venture between locally owned businesses Paradise Companies and Galaxy Media Partners, purchased the Syracuse Nationals in a deal announced on May 1, 2023. Both companies are based in Syracuse.

“The Syracuse Nationals has always been about more than just cars — it’s about family,” Grazi Zazzara, co-owner of Syracuse Nationals, said. “We’re proud to create an event where generations can come together to share their love of classic cars, enjoy exciting attractions, and make lasting memories. With free entry for kids 12 and under and special exhibits like the Batmobile and Mystery Machine, we are excited to welcome even more families to this year’s celebration.”

Organizers say the Syracuse Nationals car show continues to support local charities, with proceeds benefiting various organizations. Last year’s event raised more than $90,000 for local charities, including $82,000 for the Ronald McDonald House of CNY through Brush Fest.

Empire State Development has awarded the Syracuse Nationals a $250,000 Market New York grant to expand its reach and impact, “further cementing its status as a premier national car show,” per the announcement. The Syracuse Nationals will also contribute an additional $350,000 in marketing funds to help reach the goal of expanding the event.
