Every year in early September, the Berwyn Preservation of Historic Route 66 Committee of the BDC hosts the Historic Route 66 Car Show, which is held on Ogden Avenue in Berwyn. Berwyn has always been a great Route 66 town with a thriving, dynamic and fast-growing community at its heart. The Route 66 Car Show proves very successful with an estimated crowd of approximately 10,000 residents and visitors each year. All classic and muscle car fans are welcome to the show and can rediscover the great automotive heritage of Berwyn’s Historic Route 66. WLS DJ & Radio Hall of Famer Dick Biondi will sign autographs and award trophies from Noon - 4:00 pm. Legendary drag racer “The Golden Greek” Chris Karamesines will “wow” spectators with his 8,000+ horsepower nitro fuel dragster! The event will feature a bevy of vehicles from flamethrower cars to fire trucks. Spectator admission is free!
