On May 3, we had an incredible turnout in Monrovia, California for our Route 66 Centennial Kickoff Party & Car Show, celebrating the beginning of a year-long tribute to America’s most iconic highway!
Check out the video for a look back at some of the incredible cars, great people, and fun that made the day so special.
And we’re not done yet! Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 17, 2026, when Street Rods Forever returns to Monrovia for our 35th Annual Car Show — the grand finale of Monrovia’s year-long Route 66 Centennial celebration!
We can’t wait to celebrate with everyone one more time on Myrtle Avenue, just steps from historic Route 66!
