Start your engines and save the date for the eleventh annual Guitars N' Cars Auto Show. Scheduled for October 9 -10, 2021, this big Houston family event is all about classic cars and vintage guitars and most importantly, our local veterans, with funds raised once again directly benefiting U.S.VETS - Houston. This year’s fundraising extravaganza promises to be bigger and better than ever, as the organizers team up with The CAF Wings Over Houston Airshow, one of the top airshows in the US, and Fuller’s Guitar to put on an exciting expanded two-day show at Ellington Airport.

The show is open to the public, with visitors to this year’s event also getting to enjoy the 37th Annual Commemorative Wings over Houston Airshow, featuring spectacular vintage aircraft and warbirds, aviation displays, motion simulator rides, kids carnival and merchandise booths, as well as hundreds of classic vehicles.

Guitars N’ Cars serves as U.S.VETS - Houston’s main annual fundraiser, with proceeds from the auto show supporting veterans who have sacrificed so much for our country. Established in 2009 by Gordon Clunn of Clunn Acoustical, the event has raised over $682,000 for veteran’s services. It is estimated that one in seven homeless people on Houston’s streets is a veteran and U.S.VETS - Houston was established in 1993 with the mission to successfully transition military veterans and their families through the provision of housing, counseling, career development and comprehensive support. U.S.VETS - Houston provides wrap around services for veterans experiencing homelessness, including a drop in center where they can get a meal, wash their clothes, use a computer, get free cell phone service, receive case management and begin their road to end homelessness.
