Those willing to brave the burnt ozone and carbon monoxide poisoning will find plenty of options to burst the buttons off their ridiculous-looking poodle skirts. So jump in your Chevelle and hit the road with this list of where to eat and drink along the way.

Everything You Need to Know About the Woodward Dream Cruise

There's something about Woodward Avenue and cruisin' .

As one of the major roadways in Detroit, Michigan, Woodward Ave. has been the setting for road racing going all the way back to 1848, when carriage drivers used to race along the uneven plank road.

In the 1950s, teenage car culture blossomed on Woodward. Not only were there multiple drive-ins to cruise, but the automotive dealerships and service stations of the Motor City somehow seemed to all center around this one road. Street racing became all the rage. If you had a muscle car, you were seen on Woodward Ave.

Therefore, it's the obvious setting for one of the most celebrated classic car events in modern times: The Woodward Dream Cruise.

What Is the Woodward Dream Cruise?

The Woodward Dream Cruise is the largest one-day automotive event in the world, hosting approximately 1.5 million visitors and 40,000 of the coolest muscle cars, classic cars, hot rods, and street rods from around the world.

The event started as a fundraiser for the Ferndale, Michigan youth soccer field. Nelson House, a local plumber, and Mayor Pamela S. McCullough.

But, what was meant to be a one-shot fund raiser became a huge success. Today, the event is hosted across several metro Detroit communities.

The Third Saturday of August

Each year, on the third Saturday of August, Oakland County comes alive with the roar of the Motor City's claim to fame.

The cars from the 1950s, '60s, and '70s congregate on the M1 Concourse. In true cruisin' style, the cars complete a 16-mile loop of the hosting communities, including Birmingham, Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, Huntington Woods, Berkley, Bloomfield Township, Bloomfield Hills, and Pontiac.

The cruise ends at the State Fair Grounds, just south of 8 Mile Road.

Dozens of car clubs are invited to attend, and a variety of car shows are held along Woodward Ave. on the weekend of the cruise. Whether you drive a Ford, a Pontiac, or a DeLorean, your car is welcome at the Woodward Dream Cruise.

Though the coronavirus pandemic shut down the Woodward Dream Cruise in 2020 (though an unofficial event was held by Woodward residents), the event is back on track for 2021, including the new Woodward Dream Show to be hosted in conjunction with the cruise. While the two are separate automotive events, the car show plans to keep the hype going with host Bob Larivee, and a variety of events to continue celebrating some of the best cars to ever come out of Detroit.

In the past, 90% of the time that we have visited the Greater Detroit area, we've stayed in either Dearborn, or Livonia.

For the cruise , is it better to stay in Madison Heights? Also, I heard that most of the action and displays are between 9 Mile and 14 Mile. Does anyone know of a spot that I could be dropped off, in-case the wife and teen decide to take the car and go up to the Great Lakes Crossing mall (which I can see happening...)?

' class=

It depends upon your budget.

Thanks. What are your thoughts about the 14 Mile and Stephenson Hwy area? There seems to be a lot of hotel, dining choices in that area.

Thanks again.

14 and Stephenson / I-75 in Madison Heights / Troy would be a good place. You are only a few miles from Woodward where everything takes place which would make for an easy Uber trip. Traffic as you get close to Woodward will be stupid busy, so you may need to get dropped off farther away and walk it. There are several mid-range hotels (Holiday Inn Express, Hampton Inn, Courtyard) plus a couple more under construction - not sure if they will be open by August. As you noted there is plenty of dining in the area and Oakland Mall is right there (Macy's, Sears, JC Penny) plus all of the surrounding strip malls with other stores.

On the moderate side, I'm looking into The Hampton Inn on Wilshire.

On the cheaper side (if I can convince my wife, as I'm OK with it....) I'm looking at the Super 8 on Maple.

I think (hope) that either one will be OK-based on what I know about the overall area.

Again, I'm more familiar with the Michigan Ave, Telegraph, Middlebelt, etc. area; So I really appreciate your insight.

' class=

But wherever you stay get your reservations soon many places are already filled due to the car clubs coming to town.

Woodward Dream Cruise & Google Maps

It looks like Google Maps was filming Woodward Avenue during the 2010 Dream Cruise. If you go on Google maps and go to Woodward Avenue in Michigan; drag and drop the little zoom in/out guy onto Woodward Ave and you'll see pics of the cruise. It starts North on I696 and goes into the loop of Pontiac. I saw a red 70 GS at Pasquals and 2 convertible GSs at Uncle Ed's oil shop north of 13 mile. Many cool cars cruising the streets....... :3gears: Also some good burn-out marks at Avon's Donut shop North of South Blvd before the RR tracks.

That is amazing that Google was taking pictures that day. Those shots were taken in 2009. The blue 71 and the red 72 442 are my cars and the white 71 is my Dad's. We have had those spots in front of Uncle Ed's since 2000. Al

This is so cool, I headed south and found a couple Buicks. It's kind of neat to be able to look around and zoom in.

Woodward Dream Cruise

Hey all! OK, let's make it official. Come one, come all. I live In Berkley, MI less than 1 mile from Woodward Ave. and 13 mile (about a five minute walk), right in the heart of the Dream Cruise If anyone wants to use my house a home base to eat, drink, and hang feel free to stop by and do so. Contact me for directions or mapquest me at 4115 Gardner Ave. Berkley, MI 48072 Only about 6 weeks to the event. Gonna be a blast! Can't wait!  

Oh heck yah. I live in Clarkston, about 10-15 minutes from Woodward. I am pumped already about the cruise! :willy:  

woodward ave dream cruise directions

I will be there bud :dthumbs:  

If this new job comes through as I suspect it will (I've received very high remarks) then I will have a place to park some Sols right across from Duggans. Literally...right across from Duggans. Not sure how many I'll be allowed to have there but it sounds like krispysteve is close enough for it to not really matter! I can't wait. This is the first year I'll have my Sol. Last year it was in the shop being worked on. We MUST have a big showing!  

woodward ave dream cruise directions

Soitenly Marie - you remember correctly. The Thursday night cruise was very nice. Although still somewhat crowded on the road - it was still not as bad as Saturday (the actually Dream Cruise day). I'll be good for whatever day (night) that we want to gather this year. Keep in touch - always nice to see everyone again. :yesnod:  

woodward ave dream cruise directions

Steve - Sounds good. I used to live in Berkley, at 12 & Coolidge on Kenmore Rd. I'm in Clarkston now. I have a group of friends coming in with all kinds of cars - hopefully at least one Solstice to join my SKY, and maybe we will stop by, if we can get through. 13 & Woodward is the busiest area, and I usually go around.... :driving:  

woodward ave dream cruise directions

What's the date and times for the meet/cruise? Trying to make arrangements.  

The date is August 18 this year. It starts as early as 8:00am and they close down the street around 9:00pm. People are already cruiseing Firday and Saturday nights, but it really starts to get big the Monday before the cruise. Anyone is welcome to stop by my place anytime between now and the cruise, but I figure most will do Wednesday-Saturday Aug 15-18.  

I PROMISE to make this one!  

Let's make it an official time to meet anytime in between 10 am and 11 am at Steve's house. From there we can decide what is going on. Whether we have parking on Woodward, we can check out all the cars, we can cruise in a group, etc. Steve, interested in doing a BBQ that night if we each bring either money or a passing dish??  

woodward ave dream cruise directions

The 2nd annual Thursday DreamCruise run is on. Meet at Cranbrook off Woodward between Lone Pine and Long Lake at 7:00 pm. Go down the hill past the guard booth and turn left into the parking lot. See you all there. :yesnod:  

Excellent! Thanks Tuffy. Thursday worked out quite nice last year - Saturday is a day to avoid if at all possible - too congested, but the weeknight was good to cruise down the road as a group. :agree:

Woodward Ave Dream Cruise

Has anyone got any info about the blackout regarding canceling or postponing the Cruise? My Father -in-law said there has been crusin going on there for a week now but it was canceled when the blackout hit. He lives near there and is a car nut also,but I've lost contact with him. Any news about the Cruise??? I managed to have a intermittent conversation with a friend in the Detroit area, the latest info he has is that the cruisers are still able to cruise Woodward but the power is not on in many areas. That means gas is hard to find and restaurants are hard to find as well. The official Cruise activities are postponed until Saturday. Things are really messed up there. The cops are going to shut down the crusing at 8 pm tonight according to local radio stations there. I just got a call from my father-in-law confirming the 8pm shutdown time being broadcast on Detroit Channel 2 TV They are having a major storm there now and there is concern about flooding at freeway underpasses because of no power to run the pumps. I'm from Detroit and I'll bet the hardcore hotrodders are still going to have a good time in spite of all this. ROD ON DETROIT !!!  

yep, it's on for sat. and it's not supposed to be 8pm tonight, but rather 8pm sat. but that's just what i heard. i was down on woodward wednesday night, freakin' fun :thumbup: too bad i was just in my daily driver, though no races, still torched it from an intersection or two. :nono:  

Howdy fellow cruisers... I was in Detroit from Tuesday until Sunday morning. I fought through it all....A group of us were coming back from the Henry Ford Museum when the power went down. The rest of the time we struggled with food...water....keeping cool...and the traffic....But WE LOVED IT ALL..... oh yeah...my buddy got rear ended in his 9 second 63 Galaxie...rats.......
