Tune-Up Party @ the SouthSide Works

2024 PVGP Tune-Up Party at the SouthSide Works - Wednesday, July 31 6-9 PM

Registration closes at 11:00 PM Sunday, July 28. There will be no entries allowed after that and you can not pay at the event.

The PVGP looks forward to celebrating our 42nd year by partying South Side Style. The contribution is only $50 to put your vehicle in the Car Showcase. Entrants also receive two free drinks at one of several drink stations within the show. The PVGP will have a live musical performance by "The Bricks".

The Grand Prix’s Tune-Up Party has been a popular Race Week event since it was created back in 2006. It debuted at Bossa Nova downtown on 6th Street and grew so large that it spread across the river to the Roberto Clemente Bridge and PNC Park, then to Heinz Field. The party shifted gears and found a new home at the SouthSide Works in 2021. Hundreds of cars will gather for a fabulous car show including race cars, exotics, antiques and show cars for this exciting street festival in the streets surrounding SHOP 412 and the SouthSide Works Town Square.
