Auto Show is June 27, 2026

The engine roars again. On Saturday, June 27, from 2 to 5 p.m., Lake Bluff History Museum brings the community together for our annual celebration of automotive history.

This year, we’re celebrating America’s 250th birthday with dedicated exhibition space for RED, WHITE and BLUE vehicles. Whether it is a cherry-red convertible, a classic white cruiser, or a midnight blue truck, we want your patriotic rides on display.

As with our previous Auto Shows, Lake Bluff’s leafy downtown area will be transformed into a classic car showcase. Visitors and exhibitors alike can stroll past charming shops and get up close with an incredible variety of vehicles:

  • High-performance Cobras, Corvettes, and Mustangs
  • Elegant Packards, Jaguars, and Rolls-Royces
  • Nostalgic Woodies, custom hot rods, and giant monster trucks
