The 2018 Philadelphia Auto Show will open on Saturday, Jan. 27, in the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Each year, crowds come from all over to view the hundreds of cars gathered there.
On the 700,000-sq. ft. display floor, visitors can check out exotic vehicles, classic automobiles, luxury rides and the newest models from many popular car brands.
Auto Show attendees are invited to sit inside almost all of the cars, and there are several ride and drive opportunities.
On select dates, special guests will make appearances in the Honda display at this year's show. The first is rapper Chill Moody, who will perform live on Jan. 27.
UPDATE: Since Eagles safety Rodney McLeod will be at Super Bowl LII, he will no longer make an appearance. Instead, visit the Honda display for a chance to win an autographed football or snap a photo in the football-themed photo booth.
On Feb. 3, former U.S. Women’s soccer star Heather Mitts will be available for a meet-and-greet.
Back for a second year will be the Hollywood car display. The Scooby Doo Mystery Machine and Vin Diesel’s "Furious 7" 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner will be featured, among other vehicles from well-known movies.
When navigating through the display floor, note that vehicles are arranged by category.
