Bump,
No responses? I guess i'll have to wing it... :okay:. |
In the area there are only two substantial areas to park available.
Kwantlen - at 56th and Glover. Across the street from the new BMW and Infiniti dealerships. Kwantlen is an Impark lot, but it was free last year and I assume it will be again this year.
The Casino - there's a large parkade you enter off Logan ave. Follow Glover for two blocks south past Kwantlen, turn right, the parkade is a half a block down on your left. I'm not sure if this will be open, parking fees, etc.
If you're coming from Richmond just follow 56th. If you're coming from Vancouver the fastest route will most likely be taking the 232nd exit off highway 1.
If you want to fill up after the show, the closest non-gvrd gas station is the Shell on Fraser Highway and Station Road, it's about 10 minutes East of Kwantlen, gas should be $120.1
I've gone every year for..... 11 years, I think. I usually get there between 10-11am, but as long as you arrive by early afternoon you'll have lots of time to walk around and check out the cars, it's not like a couple hour long RS meet.

Also, noob question but I perused their website and checked the FAQ but I still don't quite understand, so this is a "Cruise-In" event? How does that work?
One of the Q's on their site is: Question: What time is the car show open to the public? Answer: 8am to 6pm free parking and shuttle service from Kwantlen College (Hwy 10 & Glover)
So does that mean we are required to park at Kwantlen and take a shuttle to the actual site? I can't just park nearby and walk in?
Do we have to pay to get in then buy the burgers?
Or is this somewhat similar to a RS meet except it's focused on Classic cars?
I looked at the Event Map and it looks like a bunch of road closures, do they just park on the street?
Sorry I've never attended this kind of event before and I'm sorta clueless. |
You can park nearby and walk in, that's what I will be doing. It's two blocks from Kwantlen to the show.
I can't remember ever paying to enter the show, I think it's just the cars that sign up who pay.
Sort of like an RS meet, except on public streets, way larger, different crowd...
