Bloomington Gold Corvette Show in Champaign

Car enthusiasts can make their way to Champaign this summer for the longest-running national Corvette event, the Bloomington Gold Corvette Show.

Hailed as one of the most innovative car shows in America, the Bloomington Gold event started many now-standard car show activities, such as Corvette auctions, swap meets, educational seminars and special museum-type displays. The event now attracts more than 4,000 of the classic cars, with more than 1,000 expected to take part in the GoldTour, a parade of Corvettes through the downtowns of Monticello and Champaign.
