TRANS AM TAKEOVER OPEN CAR SHOW

September 11-12, 2026 • Branson, Missouri

The Trans Am Takeover Open Car Show is exactly that — OPEN to all makes, models, and years of vehicles while putting a special spotlight on the legendary Pontiac Trans Am.

The weekend begins Friday, September 11, with our Lock Up Hunger Food Drive featuring East Bound and Down's own Sheriff Buford T. Justice and Deputy Junior Justice. This fun-filled community fundraiser benefits Leftovers 4 Locals, helping provide food and essential items to families throughout the Missouri Tri-Lakes area. Bring non-perishable food items, nominate a friend, coworker, business owner, or local celebrity to be "arrested for a good cause," and help us make a real difference in the fight against hunger.

Friday also features the Great Branson Scavenger Hunt, sending participants on an adventure throughout Branson. Visit popular attractions, discover hidden gems, complete challenges, snap photos, and collect clues while exploring one of America's favorite vacation destinations. Teams will compete for prizes, bragging rights, and plenty of laughs along the way.

As the sun goes down Friday evening, enjoy live entertainment featuring special guest performers and exciting surprises. It's the perfect way to kick off a weekend celebrating cars, community, and fun.

On Saturday, September 12, the spotlight turns to the Open Car Show at the Branson Auto & Farm Museum. Whether you drive a Pontiac, Chevrolet, Ford, Mopar, truck, classic, muscle car, street rod, modern performance vehicle, or custom build, you're invited to show it off.
