St. Ignace hosted its first car show in 1976 as part of the bicentennial celebration. Over the years, the annual gathering has grown into one of the largest collector-vehicle events in the country. This lakeside community overlooking the mighty Mackinac Bridge and historic Mackinac Island boasts a spectacular waterfront�the perfect backdrop for a stunning array of eye-catching vehicles. In the early years, media referred to this show as �dessert.� As the numbers of participants and attendees grew, it became known as the �main course.� For teenagers growing up in the 1950s it was all new�cruisin�, drive-ins, drag strips, the country�s intense love affair with the automobile, and the birth of rock �n roll. Over 34 years, the St. Ignace Car Show has brought hundreds of automotive legends to town, and car-show traffic set crossing records on the Mackinac Bridge that are unlikely ever to be broken. So fire up the hot rod and cruise back to a simpler time . . . all these cars and still no traffic light!
