When it comes to Corvette shows, they don’t come any bigger than the annual Corvettes at Carlisle presented next month by eBay Motors at the Carlisle Fairgrounds in Carlisle, Pa.
Carlisle will be celebrating its 40th anniversary Aug. 25-27, and the schedule of events is huge, including a chance to visit with the largest gathering of the minds behind the C8 Corvette outside of corporate headquarters.
With the highly anticipated 2023 Z06 just weeks away from being delivered to eager customers, the timing couldn’t be better to meet the brilliant folks behind the mid-engine Corvette.
Not only do they plan to bring about 25 C8s with them, but you’ll also be able to get up-close and personal with the Z06, Stingray, and 70th Anniversary Editions.
Team Chevrolet will also have two displays – one with the engineers and cars and another aimed specifically at the Z06.
Carlisle just released a list of all the GM officials who will be on hand, and it includes some of the biggest names in the business:
• Josh Holder – Vehicle Chief Engineer

“Bring your Corvette or walk around and look at the amazing variety on display on the Fun Field,” a Carlisle spokesman said, noting that the event “spotlights all aspects of the Corvette hobby, including different styles, packages and every generation of production, from year one in 1953 to the modern day C8.”
