Summer Sundays 2025: Cars, Crafts & Community Fun at Village Walk at Eastlake
Looking for something fun (and free) to do with the family this summer? Head over to Village Walk at Eastlake for Summer Sundays 2025, a weekly car show and live music event that’s bringing the community together every Sunday from 5 to 7 PM. Every time we post about this event on our social media channels, many of you forget about it. It’s the perfect way to wrap up the weekend.
A New Car Club, Band, and Craft Each Week
Each Sunday features a unique mix of classic cars, live music, and hands-on fun for kids. Whether you’re a fan of hot rods, soulful tunes, or free crafts for the little ones, there’s something new every time you visit. My favorite night is July 13th. The Model A Restorer’s Club & San Diego Antique Motorcycle Club will be the featured club, and they have some beautiful classic Model A cars. Another favorite is the local club, South Bay Cruisers, which will be the featured club on July 6th. No matter which day you choose, you’re sure to have a great time.

Music, Kids Crafts & Sweet Treats
Live bands set the tone each week while kids get creative with fun crafts like beach balls, tote bags, and journals. These activities are always a hit, and supplies can run out, so plan to get there early.
Last week, we bumped into Monica, a local mom who brings her family out every Sunday. She told us, “We love walking around, listening to music, and the free kids activities are such a nice touch. Plus, we always stop for donuts at the Eastlake Donut Bar!”
Shop Local, Eat Local, Support Local Chula Vista
Summer Sundays aren’t just about cars and music. They’re also about community and awareness. Many of the businesses at Village Walk at Eastlake are open during the event and welcome families in for dinner, treats, and special promos. They will also have vendor booths from local businesses in the shopping center. Many of them will offer free information, discounts, and even treats for the kids. It’s a great chance to explore the center and maybe discover your new favorite spot.
This summer, Luscious Dumplings has become a crowd favorite, and we’re all keeping an eye on the soon-to-open Bag of Beans Coffee, which will be opening its very first U.S. location right here in Chula Vista.
Don’t Miss the Summer Sundays 2025 car show
The event only runs through July 27, so don’t wait too long to check it out. A lot of residents forget it’s happening, which is a shame. This is exactly the kind of thing that makes Chula Vista special. Hopefully, next year, we’ll see it expand to more Sundays.
Be sure to check out our full Summer 2025 Event guide here. There are so many events happening this year and I want to make sure you know about all of them. You can also follow us on Instagram for all the good Chula Vista vibes.
