Canadian International Motorama Custom Car & Motorsports Expo is coming in March to Toronto’s International Centre.


Every year around March, Toronto has been blessed with a Hot Rod, Classic and Motorsports show. The show was always held at the International Centre (Airport Road and Derry Road) near the north end of Toronto’s Pearson International Airport.

In the recent years past the show was called MegaSpeed Customer Car & Truck Show. Prior to that version, it was also called Performance World. Prior to that, it was called the Motion Custom Car Show. The name did not matter, it was always a fun adventure to visit the show and gaze at the automotive magic on display.
