A special thank you to everyone who came out to support us for 2026. We really appreciate you. Please stay safe during the off-season, and we look forward to seeing you again in 2027.

Speaking of 2027, with one exception, our 2027 gatherings will take place on the second Sunday of every month beginning on April 11th and running until November 17th at Old Mill Center (aka Goodwives Shopping Center), 25 Old Kings Highway North in Darien, CT. The one exception is May, when we will meet on the 2nd Saturday of the month so as not to conflict with Mother’s Day. The entire schedule is posted here and tickets for all events are on sale now.

We’ve also made some changes to the themed days.  Once again, we’re going to start the season with German Cars, but this year, we’re going to end with the 2026 Cannonball Run Reunion because, well, why not?

Please come on down and enjoy a diverse display of classic, sports, and exotic cars, bikes, and trucks.  One of the things that makes our event unique is that there are no rules or requirements regarding what’s “worthy” of being included. It’s not uncommon to see Brass-era cars parked right next to the latest supercar from McLaren.

To make things a little more interesting this season, we’ll be featuring cars from different manufacturers every month, but any year, any make, any model of car or motorcycle is welcome. We encourage you to bring the kids and your pets. These family-friendly events also offer coffee and discounted breakfast treats for sale from Aux Delices.

Why Goodwives Shopping Center?

Throughout the 1970’s and 1980’s, there was a restaurant in Goodwives called the Lock, Stock, and Barrel. The LS&B was owned by Darien resident George Lysle who, after a brief tenure on Wall Street, decided to take on the challenge of managing the careers of the most notable names in the auto racing industry at IMG. With George’s connection to motorsports, and his long-time friendship with race car driver Peter Revson, when George opened the LS&B, it became a hangout for local motorsports enthusiasts, and in 1979, the LS&B served as the starting point for the last “official” Cannonball.
