From March 5 – 13, car enthusiasts young and old can gawk and marvel at the automotive industry’s latest creations at The Pennsylvania Convention Center. The Philadelphia Auto Show will feature hundreds of concept, classic, luxury and exotic cars on a 700,000 square-foot display room. Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Ashton Martins, you name it, it’ll be there. But if you’re on a tight budget, guests can also get up-close and personal with the newest vehicle models being sold at dealerships in the surrounding region. 

Aside from gawking at the automotive industry’s latest creations, events of all sorts are scheduled for the huge nine-day show including chances to enjoy live musical performances, celebrity meet-and-greets, and much more. To get a better idea of what’s in store for you, check out the full list of events here.
