Vettefest Trailer Parking???????

Musclecarkid · #1 11-01-2007, 06:11 AM

There is a possibility I'll be in the Chicago area after I deliver a car to Schonye. Is there a spot I can park my truck an trailer that is safe? I would like to experience VetteFest this year. What days does the show run? Is it open to the general public on Friday? Who do I see for tickets or parking?
I'm sure you guys can help.

Kevin,

Bob Ashton will probably chime in here shortly and give you full details. Parking is available at a marshalling yard just a block South and a few blocks West of the Stephens Center. That's where most of us leave our rigs. The VF gang runs a shuttle back to the Show venue and you won't have to wait long to catch a ride.
Friday is move-in/set-up day with the actual show running Saturday and Sunday. Friday is a fun day though. Kinda cool to see everything coming together. Maybe you could ride in on Schonye's pass.

Look us up if you get there.

Gee Dennis, how'd you know?

We have secured the Marshalling Yard Dennis described for Thursday - Monday and this year the Semi trailers will be moved out allowing us more room. This is a good safe spot and several of our vendors will be in their motorhomes overnight in the lot.

Public show hours are 9am - 6pm Saturday and Sunday.
We have discount pre-sale tickets available for one more week by calling the office Monday through Friday the 9th for $12 with your Visa or Mastercard.

This show is going to be off the hook! 500+ cars and the overall quality exceeds even my incredibly high standards!

Check out the website for more information and pictures of some of the cars that will be at the show along with a list of show features and goings on. www.chevyvettefest.net

We update the site every Friday night (late) so check it often between now and showtime!

BTW; Thanks Dennis and Thanks to you for asking!
