information compiled

The Lake Chelan Chamber of Commerce is proud to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Cruizin Chelan! Here’s to 20 years of chrome, classic cars, muscle, and the incredible community that keeps this tradition rolling year after year.

Join us for a weekend of classic cars and family-friendly fun in the heart of Historic Downtown Chelan. Whether you’re a car enthusiast, a proud participant, or simply here to take in the sights, Cruizin Chelan offers something for everyone.

Cruisin’ Chelan’s Show and Shine on Saturday provides the opportunity for car enthusiasts to peer into the windows and under the hood of over 150 classic, vintage and just downright cool cars, trucks and motorcycles.

But we also know the thrill of hearing those engines actually purr (or growl) and watching them proudly cruise down the street in all their glory.

Well, this weekend, you can have both!

Friday afternoon, participants in the 20th annual Cruisin’ Chelan will be gathering at 12 Tribes Casino in Manson in preparation for a leisurely convoy-style cruise along the northshore into Chelan.

Cruisin’ the Northshore into Chelan on Friday afternoon

Proud car owners will participate in a rolling road show along Lake Chelan’s northshore. The car cruise is scheduled to start in Manson at 4:15 p.m. providing spectators with many opportunities to watch these vehicles as they make their way along the scenic route.

Listen to those engines purr as they slow roll through downtown Chelan to Miller’s Auto Museum for a participant-only registration party.
