2021 NCM 27th Anniversary Celebration
Thursday September 2nd – Saturday September 4th

In the 2 plus decades since the Museum opened, the scope of the vision has blossomed to include changes such as the dedicated special exhibit hall, dedicated PDI delivery area, restoration area, full-service store, interactive exhibits and a full Motorsports park.

Every year around the Labor Day weekend we celebrate the Grand Opening of the Museum in 1994 with a participant focused event. This year we mark the 27^th Anniversary milestone and focus on the diversity of the people that Corvette has brought together for a look back on the Museum’s history and forward to the future! Registered participants can enjoy 3 days of activities in and around the Museum including access to interesting and unique road tours, special video presentations, raffles, and more during this event in honor of your help and support!

A FULL Seminar schedule is COMING SOON. We are working with each presenter to determine their ability to travel and availability. Presentations will be a mixture of in person and Virtual. Several presentations WILL BE VIRTUAL ONLY. Special Seminars this year include:

24 at 20: Earnhardt, Corvette, and the Overall Win at Daytona with Doug Fehan, Gary Claudio, Andy Pilgrim, and more!

Bowling Green Assembly Plant Update with Kai Spande

Product demonstrations by LLumar: Preferred PPF of the National Corvette Museum
