RetroFest volunteers pass a hot pink classic car on Saturday, during the 12th Annual RetroFest. An estimated 15,000 people flocked to the downtown on the weekend to enjoy the weather and gaze upon about 600 vintage vehicles.

  1. Thank-You Chatham/Kent

    The Historic Downtown Chatham B.I.A.
    Is always proud to host,organize and sponsor Retrofest.This year marked the 12 th annual event and it continues to grow & mature.

    This growth is due in part to the dedication and determination of the all the individuals that sit on the various committees and organisations that help with the planning.

    The volunteers,service clubs and sponsors are the true heroes in the end,
    without them you could wonder how these or any events could be.

    People from across the municipality helped out at retrofest 2014
    and the attendees came from very far & wide.

    Events such as Retrofest are for the benefit of all of us,& by the size of the crowds
    both on King st. & in Tecumseh Park on Friday & Saturday it was truly a great event.
