The Burns Lake Show & Shine is back for 2026 — two days of great cars, great people, and a great cause.

Kick things off Saturday June 27 with a cruise night. Meet at A&W at 3pm, cruise out to the Ferry Landing, then cap the evening with dinner at The Eatery.

Sunday June 28 is the big show day at Spirit Square. Gates open at 10am and all makes and models are welcome — whether you're rolling in a polished classic or a weekend project you're proud of. Sweet Scoops will be on-site for ice cream and Ray's Lemonade will keep you cool while you wander the show.

Admission is by donation, with all proceeds going to The Arthritis Society. Come on out and support a great cause while enjoying some of the best-looking vehicles in the Lakes District.
