Back to the Bricks prepares to celebrate #5

The Back to the Bricks Cruise Weekend is revving up for its 5th annual event. This year’s show is scheduled for Aug. 11-15 in downtown Flint, Michigan.

Last year, more than 20,000 collector cars and a quarter-of-a-million spectators cruised into town during the five-day event. Even more are anticipated for the five-year anniversary. It’s a rapidly growing show that began with just 600 cars in 2005.

Old Cars Weekly is one of the sponsors.

Events will include a daily rolling cruise from Grand Blanc to downtown Flint; Friday’s annual kick-off party; continuous live entertainment; a Friday night “Cruise-In” from six different locations to downtown Flint; a fire truck round-up; free NSRA safety inspections; and a Women’s Marketplace offering shopping, fashion shows, spa treatments, and more. Admission is free.
