About the show

San Diego's automotive weekend

The San Diego International Auto Show is where San Diego comes to see what's next: the newest models side by side, the chance to get behind the wheel, and the energy of a show floor full of cars you can't see anywhere else yet. All under one roof on the Bayfront.

See it first
The newest models and debuts, up close and under the lights.

Every kind of car

On the Bayfront

What to expect

Debuts you'll want to see in person, test drives that turn a browse into a decision, the latest in electric, and plenty for the whole family. Whether you're shopping for your next car or just love the machines, this is your day.
