An American automotive classic, the Corvette is cause for celebration in Mackinaw City at the 32nd Annual Corvette Crossroads Auto Show. We invite you to join us on Saturday, August 28, 2021, just before Labor Day Weekend. G-Man Entertainment will be on site all day offering his commentary, music and enthusiasm.
Friday, Aug. 27, Corvettes of various vintages arrive, cruise and prepare for Saturday’s festivities.
Saturday, Aug. 28, hundreds of Corvettes will be on display at the Odawa Casino – Mackinaw, 1080 S. Nicolet St. from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.. Winners are selected from several categories by “People’s Choice” – this is not intended to be an intensely competitive event, rather a fun gathering for enthusiasts. The award presentation begins at 3 p.m. The corvette parade will cross the Mackinac Bridge at 7 p.m.
The Corvette Crossroads Corvette Parade across the Mighty Mac is open to everyone with a Corvette. Participants should start arriving at the Odawa Casino parking area at 6 p.m. The fee for non-show registered ‘Vettes to participate in the parade is $10 and all participants are responsible for their return bridge fare of $4.
Participants will follow the parade route through Mackinaw City and across the Mackinac Bridge where they will be able to enjoy St. Ignace and return to Mackinaw City at their leisure. The Village of Mackinaw City Police Department and Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Officers will provide traffic control along the parade route. Spectators can enjoy the show and cheer on the ‘Vettes beginning at 7 p.m. along the parade route – South Huron Ave. to Central Avenue, right on Nicolet St., to cross the Mackinac Bridge.
