Gallery: Lime Rock Park’s Historic Festival Parade – August 28, 2025 (with Video)

FALLS VILLAGE, CT – It’s always a late summer treat in the Northwest Corner of Connecticut.

As part of its annual Historic Festival over Labor Day Weekend, Lime Rock Park racetrack stages a 17-mile parade that features old race cars and vintage sports cars. The parade ends in Falls Village, CT where spectators flock to admire the models and see cars that cannot be viewed anyplace else.

RIDE-CT attended tonight’s parade and nabbed some video and still photographs…
