The WIENERMOBILE is Rolling Into Central New York

If you’re heading to the Syracuse Nationals this year, there’s an extra stop worth making.

The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile will be in town Saturday, July 18, from 10 AM to 3 PM. The iconic hot dog on wheels will be located in the Midway Lot, right near the Kids Power Wheels Races.

It’s one of those quick, fun photo ops that tends to draw a crowd, especially with families.

Big Weekend at the Fairgrounds

The Wienermobile is just one small piece of what’s a massive event at the New York State Fairgrounds.

The Syracuse Nationals is the largest car show in the Northeast, bringing in vehicles from across the U.S. and Canada. Expect rows of classic cars, custom builds, and plenty of polished chrome.

It’s not just cars either—there’s live music, food vendors, and a steady flow of things happening all weekend long.

You can easily spend a full day walking the grounds and still not see everything.
