Corvettes at Carlisle - 2025 Mini Caravan Planner

CCO is planning a mini caravan cruise to the Corvettes at Carlisle event held in Carlisle, PA Aug 21 - 23, 2025 Open Thu-Sat 7AM - 6 PM.  CCO members and friends are encouraged to register and join us.  We plan to leave Wed, Aug 20 from Grimsby and return in the morning Sat Aug 23.  



Venue - The largest and most fun-filled Corvette car show in the world.

In 2024, more than 5,000 Corvettes visited the Corvettes at Carlisle event, and more than 3,000 Corvettes registered, representing all generations of America’s classic sports car.

Guests flock to Carlisle for this event - an event that was "name dropped" on the Jimmy Kimmel Live TV show in December of 2018. Corvette enthusiasm is contagious with participation in autocross, exhaust contests, seminars and more. The excitement continues with an incredible parts shopping experience, including an automotive flea market with a wide variety of vendors, an all-Corvette car corral and Manufacturers Midway.

Bring your Corvette or walk around and look at the amazing variety on display on the Fun Field. Corvettes at Carlisle spotlights all aspects of the Corvette hobby, including different styles, packages and every generation of production, from the C1 to the modern day C8.



Pre-Register before the Gate-N-Go deadline of Monday, July 8 to save 10%! Why wait in line and lose time that you could be spending on grounds enjoying the event? Register today via Gate-N-Go to save 10%.

When you Gate-N-Go, we'll send you all applicable paperwork in advance. This way, you can affix your window sticker at home and drive right onto the grounds and immediately begin having a great time.

Even if you miss the 10% savings and Gate-N-Go deadline, you can still pre-register. Pre-registration remains available until show week. When you pre-register, you cruise up to the Fun Field Registration office, bypass one line, pick up your packet and return to your car. Place the registration on your window and you and your guest can cruise onsite with minimal delay.
After the July 8th Gate-N-Go Deadline is up, the only price for registration is full price. Why pay full price when you pay a discounted rate AND have your materials mailed to you in advance. Register TODAY and save!
