Largest Attended "Cruise Night" - in country?

I'm wondering what part of the country draws the most cars on a regular basis for a Cruise Night.

Lets say over 400 cars or more.


* I'm amazed at how large this hobby is and how well attended events are - Terrific !

 

There's a church in Wexford, Pa. (near PGH.) that has as many as 1,500 to 2,000 "cars" ( I use that term losely) every Friday night during the summer.
I was there once, too many rows of new Camaros, Mustangs and Neons.
They do get a large HAMB looking turnout though.

Marks Auto Parts in Granby Ct. every monday night,500 - 1000 cars but alot of ot stuff like Ellwood59 said.

 

Whiskey Cafe, Lyndhurst, NJ. Every saturday night, May through late fall. 300-400 cars. Fortunately this year the Non HAMB friendly cars are being pushed to the side lots. It was turning into gold chainer hell. (This is North Jersey.)
Also. Its not the biggest. (40 cars on a good night) But every tuesday evening. Rutts Hut, in Clifton, NJ is killer. Slim

 

Got to agree Wexford is a big cruise has a large selection of "vehicles" .
Only problem I have is its on friday if you work and don't get there before 5pm you'll most likely have to park in the upper over flow lot. Went for my first time last year it was raining and they still got a ton of cars. Norwin Hills Cruise (east of Pittsburgh in Irwin PA) Avg Saturday nite 200 -300 cars but there have been times when the count tops 400 +. Starts in early April and goes till the snow flies Lot5a of good people just hanging out talking cars

 

Jefferson City, MO last sat of month March -sept down town 350-500 car average. It used to pull in 700+ until they moved it down town.

 

I heard the Monmouth, IL. cruise night drew nearly 2,000 cars last year but it was a total zoo last time I went. Too many local hoodlums on skateboards and bikes and no respect for other people's property. Guess I'm just gettin' old.

Now I just sit on the front porch and watch them on their way to and from the cruise. No crowds of mouth breathers to push through, cold beer just a few steps away and a comfy chair plus I get to HEAR the cars.

 

When i visited Scottsdale Az few months ago- I saw this dude ride by me in his Motorized Lay-Boy chair at a 900+ car cruise night there.

 

I think the biggest year round one I've ever been too has to be the Scottsdale pavillions in Arizona.

 

I haven't been in a while but what about Oldtown in Kissimmee?

 

there is a group that meets once a week in the summer at a SEAR"S Mall in the Downriver town of Lincoln Park,Mi.This weekly gathering would embarass some of the largest car shows in both quality and numbers.MOTOWN MUSCLE AT it's finest with a vast selection of it all.

 

Golden, ColoRODo, in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, west of Denver, first Saturday of every month, beginning in May, thru October...usually 1500 and upwards...hard to count since there is actually cruising on the streets...but it usually is packed...go here for the website and pix: http://www.goldensupercruise.com/

The NHRA Musuem Twilight cruise night can get pretty big too.

 

bass pro shop foxboro ma every other thursday

 

Last one I was at had about 15 cars and we had a ball.
Small Town USA

 

quacker stake and lube in williamsville ny, just outside of buffalo. every thursday crap load of cars and bikes and thousands of people.

 

Marley Station Mall in Glen Burnie, Md. gets 400+ on a nice Sat. evening in the Summer months. I think the designated lot holds 400 and they usually get some spillover into adjacent areas.

 

Mornings are fun too.... CarsnCoffee is a huge monthly (1st Saturday) morning meet up in Plano, Texas.. year round. As you can see from the picture, this day I parked in a sea of european cars, Ferrari's and Porsche's and Maserati's... and there are lots of Mustangs and Vette's too. Always find plenty of classic old American rides as well. It starts bright n early in the AM and is reported to be over 500 cars. Spring Creek @ the Tollway, Plano.

 

Yep, Oldtown in Kissimmee gets pretty big, every week too I think...

 

First week in June is Grafitti Week in Modesto Ca a car show every night at a different location with a parade on Friday night ending with a 2 day Saturday/Sunday show. Don't know exactly how many cars but its hundreds for sure.

 

Marley Station Mall, Glen Burnie, Maryland, every Saturday night mid-April thru early November. All cars 20 years and older, on a good night at least 300-400 cars.

 

Bear mountain, NY. Very big, not much HAMB'ers. 800 to 1000 cars every Wed. and 500+ bikes in another section. Separate vette and mustang lots, too, so you don't have to see them.

 

....Here in southern Wisconsin.....one of the biggest cruise night is at Gus's near East Troy.....on a Saturday night in summertime there more than 400 cars....lots of great food and good times

 

Old town in kissimee,florida has as many as 700-800 cars cars on a saturday night but i have been there on special nights and seen as many as 1700 cars.

First Friday in Gadsden Alabama. The whole downtown is blocked off and there are cars lining the main thoroughfare and all the side streets. I counted about 25 million cars there last time I was there.But its bigger in the summer.

 

The Shamrods had 854 attend at the tech school on the Cape Cod Canal a Few years ago we ended up parking on the football field . thats alot for 5 hrs gathering on a tuesdaay night

 

Summer Nites Cruise, is a monthly cruise Located in Somerset KY. 1000 cars on average, as many as 1500, A great one to get to.

 

I'm probably one of the few who doesn't get excited about going to the largest cruise night, car show or what not. I'd rather go to a low pressure cruise night with a hundred or so really nice cars than attend a big open event with a thousand cars most of which are so so tag alongs.

 

Cruisin on Main in the historic main street downtown area of Manchester, CT attract thousands of cars 1985 and older every summer. they usually have 1500-2500 vehicles and over 20,000 spectators. Its always a good crowd there and i have never seen anyone being disrespectful around the cars. kids are always closely watched, etc. Its a once a year thing and it is HUGE. Good food, good people, and great cars. You will see everything from classic Model A's to original patina cars, vintage drag cars, gassers, hot rods, customs, muscle cars, vintage tow trucks, vintage fire trucks, etc. you name it; it's there. Mostly pre 1965 stuff though
