Music in the Park Festival Fundraiser
Cruisin' for a Cause: The Music in the Park Car Show
Saturday, Sept 12: The Main Show
Rain Date: Sunday, Sept 13 Location: The historic grove at Bushkill Park
Whether you roll in with a pristine 1920s antique, a high-performance tuner, a rare exotic, or a custom show-build, there is a spot for you under the trees. Our car show is a celebration of automotive culture in all its forms—helping us raise the funds needed to save the Whip Building and Carousel Banquet Hall.
