Join us for the 27th Annual Richard Crane Memorial St. Ignace Truck Show Weekend September 14th, 15th and 16th, 2023! We anticipate a record number of show trucks this year and will have limited judging categories for that reason.

NEW THIS YEAR:
We will be offering FREE off-site spectator and truck staging parking with a FREE shuttle. Park at the Mackinac County Airport (1220 North State Street, follow signage) and the shuttle will be running from the Airport to the Show Headquarters all day Saturday, September 16th (9am-5pm). You must park at the airport to use the shuttle service.
This event is organized and produced by the St. Ignace Visitors Bureau. Many of our events do not make a profit, and those that are profitable, fund underperforming events and the community of St. Ignace as a whole, including weekly fireworks and nightly music in the summer. Equally important are the contributions the St. Ignace CVB make to local programs for downtown beautification and improvements. We hope you enjoy our community during the Richard Crane Truck Show and that if you need accommodation, you choose to stay at one of our magnificent hotels, including those with fabulous rooms on the beach. Thank you for supporting the Greater Community of St. Ignace.
