Mark your calendars for September 6, 2026 and get ready for another unforgettable Rumble in the Bay Car Show! This year’s theme, “Vintage Farm Trucks,” celebrates the grit, character, and hard-working spirit that helped build our communities—and our country.
In honor of the 250th Anniversary of the United States and the 150th Anniversary of Montana, we’re tipping our hats to the classic trucks that fueled American agriculture, industry, and independence. From weathered workhorses to beautifully restored classics, these trucks tell a story of resilience, tradition, and pride.
Rumble in the Bay is one of the most eagerly awaited car shows of the summer in the Pacific Northwest. We’re located in Bigfork, Montana on Flathead Lake, a beautiful village on the bay. Bigfork closes off its main street, Electric Avenue, for the annual Rumble in the Bay Car Show. Participants from near and far roll into town with their beautiful vehicles. Crowds arrive in the early morning hours for food, drinks, and a relaxing stroll through town to enjoy and appreciate the vintages cars, trucks, and motorcycles on display.
Join us for a day filled with incredible vehicles, community fun, and a tribute to the machines—and people—that keep America rolling strong.
Bring your family, bring your friends, and don’t miss this special celebration of horsepower and heritage!
Enjoy live music from Todd Cowart at the River View Bar. The event is set for one evening, providing an opportunity for local community engagement and entertainment. Join friends and family for a fun-filled night surrounded by great music in a welcoming atmosphere.
Get ready for authentic German beer, food, music and dancing. Entertainment will be provided by Europa — one of America’s most sought-after Oktoberfest bands — as well polkas, oom-pahs and more by local talents: The MAC Band, Hungry 5, and Accordion Bob & Co. And on Saturday afternoons, it’s the Flathead’s own German orchestra, the Bavarian Echoes!
Then it’s time for you to get into the act by entering one of our nightly stein-holding or log-sawing contests, hurling kegs on Saturday evening, putting together a team for the Beer Barrel Races, or doing the chicken dance!
