Summerfest at the The Historic Vinewood will take place July 24, 2021

Summerfest at The Historic Vinewood 2021 is a family-friendly auto show and outdoor concert that takes place on Saturday, July 24, 2021 beginning at 4pm. The evening is jam-packed with activities for all members of the family including an auto show, kids zone, bands, food trucks (Poppin’ Squeeze, Lago Vista & Mexi-Q) and more. The Media is Invited to Attend. Pre-event interviews welcomed!

AUTO SHOW

The auto show will feature 75 cars, trucks, motorcycles and more. Guest judges will present Best of Show, Best Car, Best Truck, Best Motorcycle and Honor Guard Favorite. Monies raised by the auto show will be donated to the Topeka Police Department Honor Guard to help finance a trip to the Washington, DC ceremony to honor fallen officers killed in the line of duty.

MUSIC / KIDS ZONE & MORE

Two Topeka favorites will perform on The Vinewood’s outdoor stage providing entertainment for the whole family. Kicking off the evening is Heart Strings followed by the TPD Pipes & Drum Corp. Headlining the event is No Good Johnny who will play danceable country and rock to end the evening. Kids Zone activities include Sadie the Donkey, sidewalk chalk, arts & crafts and more.

The event is open to the public and tickets are $15 per person; FREE for guests aged 13 years and under. It is our goal to stress “family” in this (and every) event at The Vinewood. In order to make such an event happen, allow it to be free for the youngest family members and raise money for Honor Guard, community businesses chipped in to sponsor the event. Those include:

  • WestSide Stamp & Awards

  • The Pad

  • Topeka Harley Davidson

  • Heritage Motors

  • Honeymoon Motors

  • DH Lawn & Garden

  • TBS Electronics Inc.
