More Than a Car Show

What started as a small gathering of classic car enthusiasts has grown into one of Metro Detroit's most anticipated summer traditions. Every year, Cruisin' Gratiot fills the avenue with gleaming chrome, live music, and thousands of visitors—while raising funds for local charities that serve our community.
