A Moving Celebration of American Automotive History

This isn’t just a parade—it’s a living timeline of the American automobile.

The procession will feature 50 carefully selected vehicles representing key moments in automotive history, from competition machines that dominated racetracks to cars that became icons of popular culture.

The parade will travel under full escort, creating a striking and memorable spectacle as these historic vehicles make their way from Los Angeles’ automotive heart at the Petersen to the Pacific Ocean.

Along the route, fans, families, and enthusiasts will have multiple viewing opportunities to watch the cars pass by and experience this unique moment in automotive history.

And because this is the Petersen, a few surprises may appear along the way.

The Celebration Continues at Santa Monica Pier

When the parade reaches the Santa Monica Pier, the celebration continues.

Visitors will have the chance to see the vehicles up close, take photos, and enjoy a relaxed gathering celebrating the culture and stories behind these remarkable machines.

It will be a chance for families, enthusiasts, and visitors from around the world to come together at the end of Route 66 and celebrate the cars—and the country—that defined the open road.

Part of a Year of Celebration

This parade is one of several major initiatives led by the Petersen Automotive Museum to celebrate the twin anniversaries of America 250 and Route 66’s Centennial, exploring the history of the United States through the lens of the automobile.

From racing innovation to Hollywood legends and cross-country road trips, the car has always been central to the American story.

On July 12, that story comes to life—rolling down the streets of Los Angeles.
