Back To The Bricks

It’s that time of year again for residents of the Flint, Michigan area as well as anyone looking to take a cruise to a car show before the summer winds down. The annual Back to the Bricks festivities in downtown Flint attract thousands of visitors each year, and certainly this will be no different. Back to the Bricks not only encompasses a great car show, but it also spills into the areas surrounding Flint, Michigan with classic car cruises and drive-in movies.

The event kicks off with a Tune Up Party Week, which features food, music, prices, and even a farmers market in different locations for the week leading up to the Back to the Bricks event, from August 7-11. On August 14, those interested can fire up their old classic car and enjoy a showing of the film Footloose at the local drive-in theater. August 15 and 16 will see swap meets and car cruises. The cruises take a tour from Flint down to Grand Blanc, Michigan. Along the route, many residents set up camp near the road with blankets, lawn chairs, and snacks as they watch cars pass by.

Returning to Flint on Friday August 17 and 18, the test results continue with live music, food vendors, and of course, a great car show that spans several city blocks.
