New Corvette ZR1 Comes to Corvettes at Carlisle

The annual Corvettes at Carlisle event is scheduled for August 22-24, 2024 at the Carlisle Fairgrounds in Pennsylvania — and this year, the latest and greatest from team Corvette will be on display.

Just a few days ago, GM unveiled the all-new 2025 Corvette ZR1 — a 1,064-hp twin-turbo flat-plane V8 monster. At least one will be on-site at Corvettes at Carlisle, along with members of the team who brought it to life at GM. 

Attendees will be able to get up close and personal with the new car and all of its special details, from unique aluminum wheels through a carbon fiber roof. The Team Chevrolet tent will host planned tech sessions on the car with certified GM technician Paul Koerner — sessions that will begin with the ZR1’s introduction in 1970, its path through the Mercury Marine DOHC V8 and on to what’s now the most advanced performance Corvette yet built. 

The new car is only one of many Corvette elements that will make up this year’s event — you can also expect to see a Corvette Challenge car reunion, a 50-year display of 1974 Corvettes, Chip’s Choice with a focus on “Mean Corvettes,” and the NCRS Gallery, NCCC Judging and more. 

Gates open at 7 am on Thursday, August 22. Discounted tickets are available online in advance of the show, and kids 12 and under are admitted free. Learn more here.
