There should be a few hundred cars on any given Saturday. Many car clubs use Old Town as a venue for their meetings and shows so there may be even more. I've been many times and always enjoyed it. I think I may be racing the Catalina that weekend.

Old Town Kissimmee
Dave, it can get very busy there and it's weather-dependent. A nice comfortable Saturday there will draw hundreds of cars and thousands of people with the big cruise happening at 8 pm (last I checked). We've driven our SSJs through the cruise and the sidewalks can get 10 to 15 deep with people. Cameras flashing, people cheering, hollering and waving....great fun and lots of energy.
Prior to the cruise, my brother and I sometimes grab a sidewalk table and chairs at one of the corner pubs, order a few beers, and watch all of the cars arrive. Many are already there from car clubs or scheduled shows. Anywhere from 4pm to 9pm is when the place is rocking...

A couple of months ago I thought I had a chance to be finished with the GP and make it to this show but no such luck, still not ready, maybe next year.
