Magic Dragon Street Meet
The Magic Dragon Street Meet Nationals is a unique show for all makes, models, and years of cars, trucks and motorcycles. The show, which started in 1987, has just over 800 participants and over 10,000 spectators annually. Located in Central Missouri, Lake of the Ozarks, we bring 35 years of show experience to the historic Bagnell Dam Strip at the Lake of the Ozarks. The strip is closed to normal traffic during show hours on Saturday, so we only have show vehicles within the boundaries. This creates and electric atmosphere! Some say it's like being on the set of "American Graffiti".
How did we get our name? Some folks say the Lake of the Ozarks looks like a big dragon from the air, as it winds through central Missouri hills. Several years ago, it became known as “The Land of the Magic Dragon.”
