About the event
The 3rd Annual Mind Over Metal: Mental Health Awareness Benefit Show & Car Meet returns to Jacksonville on May 23, 2026, bringing the city together for a powerful day of purpose, community, and automotive passion. Hosted by Maceo Elk Lodge #8 in partnership with DreamTeamJax, this event blends the excitement of a high‑energy car meet with the heart of a charity initiative dedicated to supporting local mental health organizations.
This year's gathering invites car enthusiasts, families, supporters, and community members of all ages to experience a full day of connection and impact. From custom builds and show‑stopping rides to clean classics and modern performance machines, the meet showcases the diversity and creativity of Jacksonville's automotive culture. Attendees can explore the lineup, meet fellow enthusiasts, and enjoy a welcoming environment designed to celebrate both the cars and the people behind them.
What sets this event apart is its mission. There is no registration fee, ensuring that everyone can participate, and 100% of donations go directly to local mental health charities. Every dollar raised helps fund essential services, outreach programs, and support networks that make a real difference in the lives of individuals and families across the community.
Throughout the day, guests can look forward to multiple award categories, raffles, and special recognitions that highlight standout vehicles and contributors. Whether you're showcasing your ride or simply enjoying the atmosphere, the event offers something meaningful for everyone.
Located at 712 W Duval St, the venue provides plenty of space for cars, spectators, and activities. Registration opens at 10 AM, with festivities continuing into the afternoon as the community comes together to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and promote mental wellness.
Mind Over Metal isn't just a car meet - it's a movement. It's a reminder that behind every build is a story, behind every engine is a person, and behind every gathering is an opportunity to uplift one another. Join us as we turn passion into purpose and horsepower into hope for Jacksonville.
