About the Event

This unique show is meant for all makes, models, and years of cars, trucks, and motorcycles. In 2016 this fun event at the Lake of the Ozarks celebrates its 28th year! We had phenomenal weather, about 1,000 participants, and almost 10,000 spectators! With over 25 years of show experience, you can be assured that you will enjoy yourself. The Historic Bagnell Dam Strip is the ideal location for our fun event, and we even close the strip down to normal traffic during show hours. This ensures that we only have show vehicles within the boundaries! The electric atmosphere is incredible, some even say it's like being on the set of "American Graffiti".

How Did They Get Their Name?

Have you ever looked at an aerial view of the Lake of the Ozarks? Some folks say that it looks just like a big dragon (a dragon that is over 90 miles long!). It winds its way through the Ozark hills, and several years ago the area was dubbed "The Land of the Magic Dragon." At the very first show in 1987, they used the name "Magic Dragon" and it has stuck with them ever since.

Beer Day the RIGHT Way!

In case you weren't aware - Beer Day is on April 7th! If there was ever a day worth celebrating, it's this one. Also, there' no better day for Beer Day than a Friday. After a long work week, it's time to kick back, grab a cold one (or two!) and enjoy the beverage that is so delicious. Here are a few fun facts about beer - and some insight into the delicious types we have on tap here at the best bar at the Lake of the Ozarks

Fun Facts About Beer

At any given time, around 0.7% of the world is drunk - that means about 50 million people are drunk right now!

Denosillicaphobia is the fear of an empty beer glass - do you have this fear? Come to Casablanca - we're a safe place.

The world's longest hangover lasted 4 weeks after a Scotsman consumed 60 pints of beer.

The strongest beer has a 67.5% alcohol content.

In Russia, beer was not considered an alcoholic beverage until 2013.

Did you know that in Finland, there is a championship for carrying your wife? If you win first place in the Wife Carrying Championship you win your wife's weight in beer ;).

In the land of the Pharoahs of Egypt, beer was the national currency.

In Argentina, political parties have their own brands a beer (and yes, they approved that message!)

In 1963, Alber Heineken created a beer bottle that could also be used as a brick to build sustainable housing in impoverished countries.

Did you know that as a rule of thumb, darker and bitter beers have a higher alcohol content?

If you've always wanted to swim in pools of beer, you can in Austria!

In Europe, 162,719 pints of Guinness beer are wasted each year due to mustaches - There's also a mustache tax. We loved our mustached and bearded fellows at Casablanca, and you won't get taxed for them ;).
