Tulsa is turning up the throttle for the 100th birthday of Route 66! The Classic Car Centennial Parade on May 30, 2026 is now an official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ attempt — and you could be part of history.
A Guinness World Records adjudicator will be on-site to verify the attempt, and if successful, Tulsa will secure its place in the record books during the Centennial celebration of the iconic highway.
Parade Details: Cars, Celebration, and Community
The event kicks off at Tulsa’s Expo Square, which will also host a pre-Cruise Tailgate and Expo on Thursday and Friday, May 28–29.
On the day of the parade, cars will stage at Expo Square, travel north on Yale Avenue, then west on 11th Street, covering a 5.5-mile stretch of historic Route 66.
