In that year, there were 250,000 participants, nearly ten times the expected number. As the saying goes, the rest is history.
Your Ultimate Guide to the 2023 Woodward Dream Cruise: The Woodward Dream Cruise 2023 occurs on Saturday, August 19, 2023. Here is everything you should know.
The Woodward Dream Cruise is the largest one-day commemoration of classic car culture in the world, with over 1 million attendees and over 40,000 muscle cars, street rods, custom, collector, and special interest vehicles.
The Woodward Dream Cruise is held annually between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. on the third Saturday of August.
In August 1995, Nelson House and a group of volunteers sought to recreate the nostalgic 1950s and 1960s, when youth, music, and Motor City steel travelled America’s first highway, Woodward Avenue.
In that year, there were 250,000 participants, nearly ten times the expected number. As the saying goes, the rest is history.
The Woodward Dream Cruise encompasses a large portion of the avenue, with participants driving classic cars through nine Oakland County, Michigan communities (Pontiac, Bloomfield Township, Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham, Royal Oak, Berkley, Huntington Woods, Pleasant Ridge, and Ferndale). Spectators and cruisers travel to Metro Detroit, the origins of the American automobile, to take part in a celebration of all things automotive.
There are no costs to participate or observe the event. Anyone can participate, but non-classic car drivers are asked to remain out of the two right lanes closest to the curb.
The Woodward Dream Cruise is a breathtaking event to either drive or observe from the sidelines. Along or nearby the cruise route, public parking is accessible.
The Woodward Dream Cruise is a family-friendly, alcohol-free event. As public safety is of the utmost importance, cruisers must adhere to all traffic regulations.
During the Cruise, police departments from each community patrol on foot, on horseback, and in vehicles to ensure everyone’s safety and a family-friendly environment. Along the route of the Cruise, a group of amateur radio operators serve as additional “eyes and ears” for law enforcement officials.
