The Ouellette Car Cruise builds on the nostalgia of Windsor’s storied automotive history and seeks to engage car enthusiasts, hobbyists and the community at large in celebration of our deep automotive roots.
Cruisers begin gathering on Friday, August 18, at Riverfront Festival Plaza at 1pm in the heart of downtown Windsor. The cavalcade of roaring engines and shining chrome begins at 6pm.
The route takes cruisers on a tour of the city from Ouellette Avenue to Tecumseh Road East and from Riverside Drive to Pillette Road.
