On Saturday night, the Corvette community takes over downtown for the annual Corvette Parade, Park & Party, presented by the Downtown Carlisle Association. It’s one of those Carlisle traditions you simply must experience from behind the wheel!

The parade leaves the fairgrounds and heads into downtown Carlisle, where Corvettes fill the area surrounding the town square. Once parked, get out, stretch your legs, grab some dinner or a drink at one of the many downtown restaurants, and enjoy an evening surrounded by fellow Corvette enthusiasts.

Add live music, friends, thousands of spectators, and an entire downtown celebrating Corvette—and you've got one big Saturday night street party!

Corvettes at Carlisle isn’t just a gathering of Corvettes—it’s a gathering of Corvette people, and the clubs that come together each year are a huge part of what makes the event so special. Whether your club has been coming to Carlisle for decades or you’re building a new Corvette community, there’s no better to show everyone what your club is all about.

Make Your Club the Place to Be
Officially Recognized Corvette Clubs with 25 or more registered vehicles have the opportunity to secure a club tent on the Corvettes at Carlisle Fun Field. Your tent becomes home base for the weekend—a place to relax, catch up with friends, meet fellow enthusiasts, and welcome new members. And if your club has a little competitive spirit, there are some pretty great reasons to bring your best game to Carlisle!

Hemmings Club Challenge
The Hemmings Club Challenge recognizes the three largest Officially Recognized Clubs AND top three registries based on the number of registered show vehicles. So rally your members, spread the word, and see just how strong your club can be!

Coolest Club Contest
What makes your club the place everyone wants to hang out?
This contest is all about the personality of your club. We’ll be looking for the club tent that catches our attention and makes us think, “This is where the party is!”
It could be your decorations, theme, hospitality, creativity, atmosphere, activities—or simply the undeniable vibe that makes your tent the place to be.  There are no limits to how you make your club stand out. Have fun with it!

Furthest-Traveled Club
Corvette enthusiasts will travel a long way to get to Carlisle—and we want to recognize the club that travels the farthest to join us!  The Furthest Club Award celebrates the Officially Recognized Club that comes from the greatest distance to be part of Corvettes at Carlisle. Registries are not eligible for the Furthest Club Award.

Is Your Club Ready?
To qualify for the special club awards, your organization must:

• Be an Officially Recognized Club with Carlisle Events
• Have a minimum of 25 registered Corvettes on the Fun Field

More than anything, bring your members, bring your Corvettes, and bring the spirit that makes your club unique.  Because at Corvettes at Carlisle, the cars may bring us together—but it’s the people that keep us coming back.

Get your club organized. Get registered. Then get ready to show Carlisle what your club is made of!

One of the best parts of the Corvette weekend is spending time with some of the most relevant names in the Corvette hobby. What tops that? Having your Corvette chosen as a Celebrity Choice Award winner! The “ celebrities” are notable people within the Corvette hobby, such as GM engineers who were the visionaries behind the cars you love, club leaders who make it their mission to bring people to the event each year, Corvette dignitaries and special guests from throughout the Corvette world. Receiving a Celebrity Choice award is a true honor when a celebrity is selecting your car from a Fun Field filled with beautiful Corvettes representing all generations. The choice is theirs alone and can be for any reason- the color, your story, the year. The choice is the car that speaks to them on a personal level rather than traditional judging, as there is no point scoring. 

Celebrity Choice selections will start on Friday at 10AM and runs through Saturday at 1PM. All Corvettes at Carlisle registered Fun Field participants are eligible to be selected as a celebrity choice winner. 
If your car is chosen as a winner, the Celebrity will place a sticker on your windshield and you will be eligible to participate in the Awards Parade in front of the stage. During the parade, your name will be announced as you pull up to the stage to take a picture with the Miller family. The parade is a great photo-op for family and friends. A photographer will be taking pictures of each car as it drives through the parade. Don’t miss this opportunity to show the world your Celebrity Choice!

If you cannot attend the parade, your award can be picked up throughout the weekend at Guest Services (see event guide for times). After the show you may pick up your award during regular business hours at the fairgrounds or we will ship awards for $20.

Corvette owners, you now have a chance to showcase just what your ride sounds like in a standalone environment. Forget about revving your engine just to turn heads, now you’re on the go and all eyes are on you Thursday, Friday and Saturday as part of Corvettes at Carlisle!  Don't miss the competition as Corvettes will compete on the Carlisle track and roar past cheering onlookers.  This will also be judged but take note, the best overall sound will take home the prize, not necessarily the loudest.

The contest consists of three rounds, with each round hosting a maximum of 10 Corvettes. Entrants are accepted for sign-up on a first come first served basis and we do expect each round to be filled so please sign up early in Guest Services. From the three rounds we will select a number of cars to move on to the finale on Saturday. The list of who qualified for the finale will be posted on Saturday at Guest Services near the Grandstand. You must participate in a qualifying round to have a chance to participate in the finale!

The Exhaust Competition is FREE but you MUST be a registered Fun Field participant to be eligible to compete! Again, sign up in Guest Services starting Thursday at 7 AM. You may only sign-up for one qualifying round!

The Carlisle PA Fairgrounds is a large footprint that can be a challenge at times, even for the most experienced attendee. 82 acres, 16+ miles of paved roadway, vendors and cars everywhere…it’s easy to understand how you may start wondering to yourself “where did I see that part or car I want to buy?” “How do I get my purchase from its space to my truck?” “How am I going to do this?” 

Never fear, because we’ve compiled a helpful list of ways that enhance your on-site experience at Carlisle! Thanks for joining us and enjoy your time at the show!

1. BRING CASH - The more the better. It’s hard to negotiate a deal without being able to pay.
2. WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES - It’s a lot of walking.
3. SUN BLOCK/DRINK LIQUIDS - You’ll be in the sun all day. It’s important to protect yourself and stay hydrated, especially if your weekend outdoors is your first prolonged exposure to the sun for the year.
4. REMEMBER THE SPACE - Take a picture of the space location or write it down. Every space at Carlisle has a disk to designate the space. Look down and you’ll see the space marker. Write down the letter and number. Don’t try to remember the space or the surrounding area. You’ll spend the rest of the day looking for it.
5. COME EARLY - Rare parts and great deals typically happen for the first person to find them. Set up day(s) and the first day of the event are for the serious shoppers.
6. ACT FAST - If you see a great deal, grab it. If you plan to come back later, it will probably be gone.
7. NEGOTIATE - It’s a flea market so don’t be afraid to make a REASONABLE offer.
8. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED - Chances are good that you will find something you weren’t planning to find, so keep your eyes open.
9. LOOK EVERYWHERE - Even if you are looking for parts for your brand of vehicle, don’t walk past the vendor selling parts for other models or generations just because you assume there’s no way the vendor has what you want. Give their space a look too. They might not only have it, it may be cheap since it’s not what they typically sell.
10. USE THE CARLISLE EVENTS APP - Use the FREE Carlisle Events app to easily find your way back to a vendor (if you know the row and space). You can also use it to check activity schedules, register for other events, connect with fellow enthusiasts via social media, browse a digital copy of the event guide and more.
11. STAY LATE – There are always deals at Carlisle, but sometimes the best ones happen early on day 1 of a show, or late on its final day. Vendors are typically more willing to negotiate when they are packing up – especially large items.
12. BRING A SHOPPING LIST - Our memories aren’t as good as we think. Write it down. You can even make a list on your phone. Take pictures of what you need.
13. BRING A BAG, CART, ETC. - Parts will get heavy so have a way to carry your purchases. Ask the seller if you can leave heavy parts until later.
14. HAVE IT HAULED - Carlisle Events offers FREE* parts hauling. Keep that in mind if you’re looking at an engine, transmission, truck bed, etc.
15. FREE TAXI SERVICE – Need to get from point A to point B but don’t feel like walking it? Carlisle Events offers a FREE* taxi service. Dial 717-960-6429 to secure a ride. 
16. ASK! - If someone has parts for a vehicle but not the ones you need, ask if the seller has it. It might still be in his truck or at home. Even if he doesn’t, he might know someone who does.
17. KNOW THE VALUE - Do some homework on the parts you’re looking for so you know if the price is a good deal.
18. AVOID THE CROWDS - When you arrive, go to an out-of-the-way area to start rather than following the herd.
19. WALK IT ALL - Don’t miss any rows. The Carlisle Fairgrounds isn’t a perfect grid so make sure you hit every row and space.
20. ADVERTISE - Wear a hat, shirt or signboard that spotlights what you’re looking for.  It just might create a conversation, especially if what you’re searching for is obscure and/or rare. 

*While parts hauling and taxi service are free, donations are graciously accepted.  Donated money goes directly to the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation.
