More American classic cars, an explosion of rock ‘n’ roll and the ultimate in vintage glamour are sure to deliver a weekend of head-turning, twist and shake fun, with the boost to the Coast’s economy estimated to be more than $13M.

“When you combine classic chrome with rock ‘n’ roll, vintage glamour and the beauty of The Entrance, you have quite a weekend on your hands,” Mr Cannard said.
“Whether you’re a car enthusiast or not, you won’t be able to resist lining the streets to watch the classic cars cruise through The Entrance.
“We invite locals and visitors to partake in a fun weekend that offers something for everyone – a vintage glamour fashion parade, retro market stalls, three outdoor dance floors and new to the event this year, The Old Tin Shed.”
ChromeFest 2019 highlights will include: a lowriders display, retro market stalls, three outdoor stages boasting undercover dancefloors, a Set and Brush Out Workshop (where you can master the perfect ‘50s or ‘60s ‘updo’.
