This Weekend - The Magic Dragon Street Meet Nationals on the Bagnell Dam Strip

Named after the dragon-like shape of the lake, the Magic Dragon Street Meet Nationals car show has been a favorite here locally for over 30 years. It is a huge event at the Lake of the Ozarks that boosts our local economy and brings people in from near and far to experience the fun and beauty of the Ozarks. It can draw around 1,000 participants and 10,000 spectators to the Bagnell Dam Strip for a weekend of some of the coolest cars, trucks, and motorcycles (of all makes and models) you have ever seen! It has the atmosphere of a block party with the street closed to regular traffic and the Strip full of show vehicles only. With numerous dining and shopping options available on site, you can spend the whole day and never have to leave. If that sounds like a blast to you, and you would like to be a spectator, here is a quick run down of what is happening.
