So, let’s start our engines and put the pedal to the metal because we’re going to zoom right into celebrating this holiday right now.

The History of National Corvette Day

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced the Corvette to the American public. It was conceived as a “real” American sports car, and its iconic stylish body held true to that promise. While the design of this car has changed over the years, it seems that the body style and features of this car have just continued to get better.

Thanks to this innovation, the Corvette has become one of the most recognizable American cars in the world and, as such, has attracted quite a large number of fans. It wasn’t long after the Corvette was debuted to the public that National Corvette Day was introduced.

The first one was celebrated by Corvette fans in 1954, who wanted to have an excuse for showing off their new cars. But then the popularity of this holiday began to wane. It wouldn’t be until 2008 that the holiday was revived.

This is when the United States House of Representatives announced that June 30th of each year would be celebrated as National Corvette Day.

Obviously, this is a holiday that Corvette lovers can use to show off their cars, to see the cars of other Corvette enthusiasts, or simply to take the time to discuss Corvettes either online or offline.
