CARnivore Show n’ Shine: Cars, Community & a Cause!

Aug 15

Rev your engines, Red Deer, as the 2nd Annual CARnivore Show n’ Shine is rolling into town Saturday, August 30th, 2025, from 11 AM – 3 PM at the Alberta Sports Hall of Fame!

Hosted by Scotia Wealth Management, this family-friendly event is more than just a car show; it’s a showcase of stunning cars, community generosity, and the drive to make a difference. And this year, it’s arriving at the perfect time.

The Red Deer Food Bank shelves are running low, and we need your help to fill them. Summer is always a challenging time for food banks, but this year, demand is high, and donations are down. That’s why your support at CARnivore is more important than ever. (Watch this video for more “Empty Shelves” info.)

What’s in the Line-Up

Car Show: Shine up your classic, muscle, or exotic beauty and show it off.
Live Music: Feel the beat while you check out the chrome.
Food Trucks: The Red Deer Food Bank’s own Totally Chill, Food Dude, and Brisket Boys will be serving up ice-cold treats, delicious meats, and fried favourites.
Kid Zone: Face painting and kids’ activities.
Outdoor Market: Browse unique local vendors and find something special.
50/50 Draw: Your chance to win big while helping a great cause.

Double the Impact – Double the Hope (Empty Shelves)

Here’s why this event is the ultimate time to donate:

*Current empty shelves at the Red Deer Food Bank - most of our stock is non-nutritional candy and pop.*

Non-Perishable Food Donations: For every pound of food you bring, Scotia Wealth Management will match the weight in monetary funds for the Food Bank. (Click here for the WISHLIST)

Monetary Donations: Every dollar you give will be matched up to $75,000.
That means your $20 becomes $40, and your 10 lbs. of food is like donating twice as much.

This is your chance to maximize the impact of your donation while enjoying a day of incredible cars, live entertainment, and family fun.

Why It Matters Now

Right now, there are families in our community who don’t know where their next meal is coming from. Your support on August 30th ensures that children, seniors, and families in Red Deer and Central Alberta have access to the food they need.

Mark your calendars, gather your friends and family, and join us for cars, community, and compassion. Together, we can make sure no one goes hungry — and have a fantastic time doing it.
