Imagine the latest technology-leading vehicles coupled with specialty cars, lifestyle features, and commercial vendors. Then, imagine bigger.

VIAS takes guests through over 100 years of automotive tradition across 300,000 square feet, with over 30 manufacturers onsite, including BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Honda, and more.

Fantastic features

Feature attractions and experiences are the most sought-after elements of the show, bringing the event to life and creating unforgettable experiences for families and car enthusiasts alike.

Some of this year’s highlights include Porsche Club Daily Drive-Ins, which feature a fresh lineup of hand-picked Porsches for viewing; and the new Cool Whips Garage, which captures the pulse of modern car culture on the streets and across social media. And, Canadian debuts of Chevrolette’s Corvette CX concept, and Audi and Cadillac’s F-1 display racecars.

Plus, the Test Drive Experience offered at VIAS is the largest and most successful of its kind in Western Canada, and is expected to be the most popular feature for 2026. Guests can test-drive battery electric and plug-in hybrids, with any electric vehicle eligible to participate regardless of MSRP.
