Carlisle Events 50th Anniversary Exhibit

Can you believe it’s been 50 years since friends Bill Miller, Jr. and Chip Miller had an idea that forever changed how automotive enthusiasts visit and participate in classic and collector car events? Their big idea became Carlisle Events.

For five decades, Carlisle Events has stood as the premier host of the world’s finest car shows and automotive events, captivating enthusiasts with an unparalleled showcase of automotive excellence. The 50-year celebration not only commemorates a rich history but also anticipates an exciting future of continued passion, innovation, and dedication to the automotive community.

Post-War ’74 may have been the event that started it all, but in the years since, the Miller families have gained millions of memories and “friends of Carlisle.” It has been an exciting ride and is showcased in the museum’s Members 1st Gallery. Visit and relive the memories and milestones.
