A Silver Clad Thanks

While we all nurse our MATG hangovers, we would like to thank everyone of our attendees, vendors, and sponsors. It wouldn’t be possible without all of you and we look forward to seeing you next year!

We’re still sifting all of the info, but it’s safe to say we broke a record or two this year thanks to y’all, and those details will be out shortly along with the links to the group photo.

Start your planning for MATG XXVI today and we’ll see you August 4-7, 2022!!!

We Bid Adieu, Once Again

Every year flies by, seemingly more so every year and this time was no different. It was great to see all of the new and returning friends we’ve made! We wish you all safe travels to places near and far and hope to see you all again!

Day 2! Socially Acceptable

We’re all sad to admit it’s the last day of MATG XXV. But we won’t shed tears yet; lets buy some raffle tickets, grab a beer and swap stories and start making plans for next year! To say we’ve been pleased to have y’all back for this year is an understatement, so please follow us on social to keep up with the latest news!

Welcome to MATG XXV!

We’d like to extend a hearty “Welcome y’all!!!” to our Silver Anniversary celebration! With more vendors than we can remember and new drives we’re very excited to have you!

Please share with us what your plans are for your time with us, it’d be great to hear from you!

We’ll See You Soon

As most of us begin our descent into the Great Smoky Mountains we’re just here to say….

WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE ALL OF YOU!!!! Please make sure you share as much as you can to both our main page and the Community page so we can see all of your travels.

1:1 Miatas are cool…

…but have you driven a 1:64 Miata lately? No? Here’s your chance to get in on the fun in a big way!

Along with some amazing offerings from one of our vendors, we are offering three cool diecast raffle prizes of our own — eight-count Miata sets! Each of these three sets contains almost every Hot Wheels and Matchbox Miata release over the past two years. These sets include the elusive GameStop exclusive green NA, and the current Treasure Hunt NA.

All proceeds from the raffle go directly to the Graham County Rescue Squad. We extend our thanks to these volunteer first responders for the invaluable service they provide!

Raffle tickets will be available at the registration tent Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Please join us in supporting GCRS, and win a set of eight diecast Miatas while doing it!

58 Days!?! OMGWTFBBQ

Did you just finish up your project car or just buy a new or new to you Miata? Have friends going and don’t want FOMO?

For anyone looking to make last minute plans to attend, we wanted to remind you know that Fontana is full, but it still makes sense to try the waiting list. One of our other partner resorts, Tapoco only has one cabin left open on their property as well. As usual there are alternatives on our website and the area is becoming more popular on VRBO and AirBnB so make those reservations and we’ll see you there!

New Vendor Location!

Hey y’all, we had one big surprise planned for 2020, we mentioned it in passing but are happy to (re)share it with you a year later.

Our vendor area is moving!!! While we’ve enjoyed our home down the hill it was time to move on up to the ENTIRE lot in front of Wildwood Grill. We look forward to having a bit more space and the change of scenery.
