2026 Carbon County Fair | June 4th - 6th
The Driven by a Cause Auto Show brings our community together to celebrate vehicles of every shape and size while raising awareness for an important cause each year. What began as the “Cause for Paws” Car Show has grown into a broader, purpose-driven event that welcomes cars, trucks, motorcycles, farm equipment, off-road rigs, specialty builds, and even aircraft. If it moves, it belongs here. The show features live music, prize drawings, trophies, and free admission for spectators.
This year’s focus is domestic violence awareness, in partnership with DontHit.org. Together, we're committed to elevating the conversation, increasing support and awareness, and driving community engagement around a cause that matters!
Don't Miss the Car Show Cruise!
Kick off the day by joining the Car Show Cruise to the Fairgrounds! Participants meet at Sutherlands parking lot just before 10:00 a.m. The cruise, led by local law enforcement agencies, departs promptly at 10:00 a.m. and makes their way to the Carbon County Fairgrounds, where vehicles will park and the Auto Show begins! Participation in the cruise is optional but highly encouraged!
Autumn Blackner, owner of Party Express & Gifts, and her husband, Robert Blackner, plan and present this annual event in conjunction with the Carbon County Fair. Their leadership anchors the show with strong community values and a commitment to creating a high-impact, highly engaging experience for participants and spectators.
Party Express & Gifts is a locally owned, family-run business based in Price. The shop is known for its celebration-forward inventory, custom balloon artistry, nostalgic and international candies, glass-bottle sodas, and unique event décor solutions.
