The streets of downtown Coeur d’Alene will once again fill with classic cars and community spirit during the 2025 Car d’Lane weekend, taking place June 13 and 14, 2025.
The event kicks off Friday evening with the annual cruise through downtown, featuring vehicles 1980 and older. From 6 to 8:30pm, spectators can line the streets to watch these well-kept classics in motion as they loop through the downtown corridor. Awards like Best Pipes and Best Flames add a little friendly competition, and it’s a great way to see these vehicles in action before they’re parked for Saturday’s main event.
Saturday’s Show & Shine runs from 8am to 4pm and offers a chance to get a closer look at each car, meet the owners, and take part in a full lineup of activities. From the Young Builders Alley to the Poker Walk and People’s Choice voting, there’s something for all ages. And for one standout entry, there’s the added honor of qualifying to compete for the Grand Champion Award at the Hot August Nights Series Grand Finale.
Whether you’re a long-time enthusiast or just curious, Car d’Lane offers a relaxed and enjoyable way to connect with local history, craftsmanship and the people who keep these vintage rides on the road. For additional details, visit CdADowntown.com.
