The New York International Auto Show is an annual auto show that is held in Manhattan in late March or early April. It is held at the Jacob Javits Convention Center. It usually opens on or just before Easter weekend and closes on the first Sunday after Easter.

The show has been held annually since 1900. It was the first automotive exhibition in North America. The show was held at the New York Coliseum from 1956 to 1987 when the show moved to the Javits Center.
Before the show opens every year, several auto companies debut new production and concept vehicles for the press. In addition, the Greater New York Auto Dealers Association (GNYADA) and the International Motor Press Association (IMPA) host corporate meetings and events.

Awesome colection of photos
ReplyDeleteOne of my fondest memories of my father is him taking me to the Coliseum Auto Show every year and once winning the slot car race, a ten year old girl, lol. If I remember correctly, there was a luxury car made entirely of wood, Peter Max was signing posters, and I may have imagined the Batcar.
ReplyDeleteBut the models were all super nice to me, and let me sit in the cars they were showing.
