The Camaro Nationals are produced by a group of Camaro owners, who volunteer their time for the good of the hobby. The thought originally formed in 1998 after the Camaro Street Nationals East ended after thirteen years in the Pocono Mountains of PA. As one of the reasons the Street Nationals ended was the limited availability of large venues in the Pocono area, the first Camaro Nationals were held in August of 1999, at the Carlisle Fairgrounds in Pennsylvania. We arranged to have space during what was then called Summer Carlisle, an automotive flea market along with motorcycles, and foreign cars. Due to the August heat, we requested a June date, as the show grew. The Camaro Nationals remained at Carlisle through 2011.

Always confirm show status, date, & time with the sponsor.
