- BY KIM PERRELLA ENYCAR’S VICE PRESIDENT OF AUTO SHOWS AND MEMBER RELATIONS

The Albany Auto Show “drives” into town next weekend and will showcase the latest features, options and styling from over 25 different manufactur­ers.

The Albany Auto Show is a non-selling event, which makes it the perfect atmosphere for your shopping pleasure. No haggling, no pressure, just the largest selection of what the Capital Region has to offer in vehicles.

You can drive all around the region to compare manufactur­ers or models, sit at your computer screen or you can save time, gas, and money and be entertaine­d by hitting the Auto Show, where you can see, feel and sit in all the vehicles, all in one place!

The show will be held Friday, November 5th from 3 pm to 8 pm, Saturday, November 6th from 10 am to 7 pm, and Sunday, November 7th from 10 am to 5 pm, at the Times Union Center in Albany, New York.

The Albany Auto Show will display more new cars, trucks, minivans, sport-utilities, luxury, utility, alternativ­e fuel and electric vehicles than anywhere else in the region! And, while you’re looking for your next new vehicle, you can enjoy other entertainm­ent as well. There will be an exciting Gas Card Giveaway for all attendees, where every hour someone will win a $100 gas card! You can also check out the classics from the Saratoga Auto Museum, which will be displayed along with cool Distracted Driving Simulators, in the Atrium area.

Opening show day, Friday, November 5th, the first 100 paid attendees will receive a free Albany Firewolves ticket, for the season home opener on December 18, 2021. Stop by the Albany Firewolves display at the show and meet the Firewolves dance team and test your lacrosse skills at the exciting shot speed challenge! Children’s show favorite, Mr. Twisty, will also be onsite both Saturday and Sunday from 12-4 p.m. Whether you are thinking of buying or leasing now, within a month, or even six months from now, the auto show is the easiest, most pleasant way to really shop your choices. Bring your desired list to look at or create one while you’re there!

The following manufactur­ers are anticipate­d to be at the show:

Other exhibitors at the show will be Adirondack Offroad & LINE-X, Albany Firewolves, Bath Fitter, Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce, Leafguard, Mobility Works, Movin’ Ads, NYSERDA, the Saratoga Automobile Museum and T-mobile.

Tickets are only $10 and children under 12 are FREE, when accompanie­d by an adult. There will be plenty of tickets to buy right at the box office the day you go and parking is free in the garage right behind the Arena.
