For over 40 years Woodland has hosted some of the premier automotive events in Northern California and has been an important fixture on our community calendar bringing hundreds of vehicles and spectators into town. This year we are doing something new and exciting by bringing back a more relaxed version of what started in 1979 as the original “Hot August Nights Cruise.”
Program of Events:
The gates open at 6:30 am. If a group wants to park together you need to arrive and line up together. From 6:30 am until 9:00 am we will park the cars along Main Street. All cars must be parked no later than 9:00 am as we anticipate a large number of spectators. The show and judging will officially start at 9:00 am and continue until the awards at 2:00 pm. From 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm participants will have a chance to relax and enjoy the many things Downtown Woodland has to offer including a good selection of stores and restaurants.
At 4:00 pm we will stage the cars who will be participating in the cruise. Only people registered for the static car show would be eligible to participate in the cruise. All participants must be able to show proof of insurance to participate in the cruise. Each registered car will be given a sticker which would be required to be displayed during the cruise. The cruise will take place through the historic Downtown from West Street to 5th Street. The cruise would finish at 5:30 pm and cars would either exit or park normally along the street for those who wish to remain and enjoy the Downtown.
In addition to the show, there will be many raffle prizes and a 50/50 drawing. Show posters and t-shirts will be on sale. Additionally, many downtown restaurants and businesses will be offering specials.
