Lake Chelan Car Show
Whether you’re an avid gearhead or are just looking for a fun time, you will not want to miss Chelan’s annual classic car show. The event is held downtown Main Street, May 31st through June 1st, 2024. Attendees will enjoy a day of classic and custom cars from around the region, plus food, drink, vendors, and live entertainment.
It all starts on Friday, May 31st, with a Cruise and afternoon Registration Kick Off party at Millers Auto Museum, located downtown at 20 Blue Water Lane.
Registered drivers meet up at 3:30pm at the 12 Tribes Lake Chelan Casino, then cruise together up Lake Chelan’s north shore and through Downtown Chelan to Miller’s Auto Museum. The 21 and over Registration Kick Off includes drinks, a casual dinner, music, and the museum’s fantastic collection of memorabilia and cars!
Saturday, June 1st, is show day. Registered participants park their vehicles along Main Street, then can enjoy the annual Pancake Breakfast at Chelan Fire Station. At 9am, the show is opened to the public and the real fun begins with all the gorgeous classic and custom cars lined up along Main Street.
Come view all the amazing cars, meet their owners, and be sure to cast your vote for Spectators Choice. The awards ceremony is 3pm on Saturday, when Judges award nearly 20 trophies in a variety of categories. This year’s trophies are handmade by local high school students – so cool!
Once you’re done looking at all the fantastic cars, head on over to Riverwalk Park for even more fun. Here you’ll find food trucks, vendor market, live music, kids’ activities, a beer garden and more!
