Leamington to Celebrate 150th Anniversary with a Dream Cruise and Car Shows

The Leamington 150 Anniversary Committee, in collaboration with the Leamington Uptown Business Improvement Area (BIA) and supported by the Municipality of Leamington, is thrilled to announce a Dream Cruise and Car Shows event on Saturday, June 29, 2024. This festive occasion highlights the ongoing celebrations marking Leamington's 150th anniversary.

The festivities will begin with a unique Dream Cruise, a nostalgic journey from noon to 1:00 PM. This historic cruise route, from the Leamington Fairgrounds to the Leamington Dock, will bring back the cherished cruising tradition of Leamington's past.

Following the cruise, the festivities will shift to Uptown Leamington for a Car Show from 1:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Classic cars and hot rods will line the streets of Talbot Street West, Queen Avenue, and John Street, transforming Leamington’s uptown into an exhibition of automotive history and style.

Alongside the impressive display of cars, attendees will enjoy live music at the Italian Centennial Park, located on John Street, from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM. This free community event promises fun for all ages and is a fantastic way to engage with the history and culture of Leamington.

"Leamington's 150th anniversary is a historic occasion, and what better way to celebrate than with a Dream Cruise and Car Shows," said Mayor Hilda MacDonald. "This event is a wonderful opportunity for both residents and visitors to experience the charm of our town. We invite everyone to join us as we drive down memory lane and celebrate our history and community spirit. Let's make this celebration a memorable one for the entire family."

A special invitation is extended to all classic car owners to participate in the car shows. Your participation is free and will significantly contribute to the event's success. The entry form is available at Leamington.ca/Carshow.

Special thanks are extended to Gino DelCiancio and the Leamington Area Classic Cruisers for their dedication and effort in organizing this memorable event.
