A free automotive charity festival the whole family can enjoy!
About CarFest
Creating Unity in the Automotive community
Each year in April, CarFest SA unites Auto Repair shops across the greater San Antonio area to give out 10 donated cars and repair 25 cars for charity. The repairs and giveaways culminated in our three-day event also include live music, food trucks, drinks, and family activities, such as: Gelly Ball, New Driver Workshop & Jeopardy, BBQ Cook-off, Car Museum, & Friday Night Lights Cruise-In.
Each year we work hard to make CarFest SA a more charitable and interactive event, so if you have visited before, you won’t want to miss it again!
CarFest SA is a non-profit festival founded by The Community of Automotive Professionals (CAP, a 501C3). Our mission is to unite the automotive industry to provide our community with charitable and educational services.
