what is 40’s in a bag?

40’s In A Bag is a car show festival that focuses on Audi and VW vehicles. We accept via invitation other European brands but they have to be something special for sure. 40’s is more than a european car show though… its a gathering built on community, nostalgia, and the love of the culture. the name itself nods to the laid-back, old school vibe of hanging with your friends, where good times do'n’t need much more than a view, and a drink wrapped in a paper bag. it represents stepping away from the noise of everyday life and creating a space where enthusiasts can come together in a scenic Catskill mountain setting, surrounded by cars that inspire them and people who share the same passion. at its core, 40’s in a bag is about connection, escape, and celebrating the lifestyle that makes the automotive community feel like family. Come enjoy a very rare and cherished experience here in Olivebridge NY

how are awards given out at 40’s?

awards at 40’s are given out in a completely different way than most car shows. awards are determined with a 40 oz bottle of beer, placed in front of the car that is most popular, but in the people’s hands. you as a attendie decides the winner, not a group of hired hands with no knowledge of the hardware. if you think its the best ride there, then place your 40 oz in front of that car. thats literally it!! the car with the most amount of 40’s, is the winner of the show! other awards are also determined throughout the day for promotors choice, shorties at 40s, Mr 40s award, coal rollers, sound off winner, and more!
