Bagels on the Bricks – Downtown Rogers, AR
The brick streets of downtown Rogers, Arkansas are normally sleepy on Sundays… typically, you’d only find a few folks stirring in coffee shops, a couple of locals strolling about. But on September 14th, all of that will be gloriously shattered by the arrival of Bagels on the Bricks! This pop-up car show sees hot rods and classic machines descend on the downtown streets like an invading army of chrome, rumbling V8s, and vibrant tones of horsepower on wheels.
This event is a pop-up organized by Black Top Promotions in conjunction with Ball Metal Fabrication & Hot Rods, which already tells you that it’s going to be much more than a couple of sedans and a Mustang. This will be full-blown, unapologetic car culture. Think gleaming paintwork, engines loud enough to frighten small children, and owners who have likely spent more on polishing cloths than you’ve spent on your house.
The best part? It’s all happening against the backdrop of those old brick streets. It’s as if someone designed the perfect set for a classic car meet… authentic, historic, and a bit rough around the edges, just like the cars themselves. It’s not just an event; it’s a rolling museum mixed with a Sunday morning chinwag, and the atmosphere is less “formal car show” and more “wander in, grab a bagel, and be utterly distracted by a ’67 Camaro idling like a caffeinated bear.”
In short: if you love cars, noise, and the smell of fuel in the morning, Bagels on the Bricks is where you need to be. This event is free and held on public streets—park in available downtown spaces.
