About the Magic Dragon Street Meet Nationals:


This unique car show at the Lake of the Ozarks is for all makes, models, and years of cars, trucks and motorcycles. The show draws in about 1,000 participants and close to 10,000 spectators annually. The historic Bagnell Dam Strip at the Lake of the Ozarks comes to life for this fantastic car show! The strip is closed to normal traffic during show hours, so there are only have show vehicles within the boundaries. This creates an absolutely electric atmosphere! Some say it's like being on the set of "American Graffiti". If you've never experienced the Magic Dragon Street Meet Nationals, come out for a weekend of fun times and cool rides!

Driving Safety Tips:

Put the Phone Down - texting, using social media, and checking emails are all very dangerous behind the wheel. The road conditions in front of you can change in a matter of seconds. If your eyes are elsewhere, you may not be aware of the need to stop or turn to avoid an accident.

Watch for Pedestrians - car shows bring out a lot of people, some of which may not be paying attention to traffic. This is especially common with kids who do not stop to think about crossing the road. With people walking near the road, ensure you use caution to make sure the road is clear of anyone or anything before driving by.

Practice Patience - crowds go hand in hand with car shows and traffic can get a bit hectic at times. Take your time and don't try to rush, when traffic is heavy. Getting in too much of a hurry can lead to making irrational or sudden movements behind the wheel, creating a dangerous roadway for everyone involved.

With many more vehicles on the road and pedestrians in the street, it's important to give 100% of your focus to driving. Looking down for a split second can be dangerous.
