Registration opens for Irrigation Festival Car Cruise Show

After a couple of years in the garage, the Sequim Irrigation Festival’s Classic Cruise & Show is back, and registration is open now for the event that bookends the festival’s Grand Parade on Saturday, May 13.

Featuring more than 20 class car awards/categories from best street rod car/pickup to top sportscar, plus five motorcycle categories, this event traditionally brings out 150-200 classic, unique cars to parade along Washington Street.

This year, cars will be available for spectators on Sequim’s east end at 250 Center Park Way.

Cars are staged on the west end (651 W. Washington St.) from 8-10 a.m., with the cruise and Grand Parade following at noon. Car show judging is from noon-4 p.m., with awards announced at 4 p.m.

Dan Shappie said organizers of the Car Cruise & Show are looking to make more of a connection between the car show and nearby Logging Show (near Carrie Blake Community Park), so they’ll have a shuttle between the two events.

Shappie said about 2,000 people come through the car show each year.
