A major automotive event expected to attract thousands of visitors from across Canada and the United States is set to roll into Moose Jaw this summer as the Western Canadian Nationals (WCN) Car Show makes its Saskatchewan return.
Scheduled for July 31 to Aug. 2, the three-day event will be hosted at the Anderson Auto and Memorabilia Collection on the acreage of Mel and Cal Anderson near Moose Jaw.
Formerly known as “Super Run,” the event was rebranded as the Western Canadian Nationals in 2025 to reflect its broader reach and growing national profile. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the event rotated between Brandon, Man., Saskatoon, and Red Deer, Alta. While Brandon resumed hosting duties in recent years, organizers say bringing the event to Moose Jaw marks another step toward restoring the long-standing Prairie rotation.
“With its strong car culture and excellent amenities, Moose Jaw is an ideal location for an event of this scale,” the group stated in promotional materials for the show.
The weekend will begin July 31 with a meet-and-greet and registration package pickup, followed by the main public show days on Aug. 1 and 2. Gates will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, with organizers promising activities and attractions for visitors of all ages.
The event is being promoted as more than a traditional car show, with plans for a week-long automotive experience that will include tours and special events leading up to the main weekend showcase.
Anderson Auto and Memorabilia Collection was chosen as the host venue because of its combination of expansive outdoor space and its well-known collection of classic vehicles and automotive memorabilia. Located on a large acreage near Moose Jaw, the site features a spacious grassy show area capable of accommodating hundreds of vehicle entries while also allowing visitors to explore the Andersons’ extensive vehicle and memorabilia collection throughout the weekend.
Current projections estimate more than 800 registered vehicles and upwards of 3,000 spectators over the three-day event.
The show is also expected to bring a touch of television celebrity to Moose Jaw, with sponsorship opportunities tied to appearances by Mike Hall and Avery Shoaf from the hit Canadian series Rust Valley Restorers, giving fans an opportunity to meet two familiar faces from the automotive world.
WCN operates as a non-profit event, with proceeds supporting Ronald McDonald House Charities Saskatchewan and its work assisting families who must travel for their child’s medical care. The event is being organized by a volunteer-driven team focused not only on celebrating automotive culture, but also on giving back to families and communities across Saskatchewan.
“This event is made possible by dedicated volunteers whose passion drives everything we do — for the enjoyment of automotive enthusiasts, families, and the wider community,” organizers stated.
The Anderson Auto and Memorabilia Collection is located just east of Moose Jaw and can be accessed by taking the Trans-Canada Highway east, exiting at Petrolia Road, and turning right to head south just past Thriftlodge Moose Jaw.
Businesses, volunteers, and organizations in the area are encouraged to get involved as planning continues, with sponsorship opportunities ranging from community partnerships and donor levels to larger presenting and celebrity packages.
