24th annual “May Madness” Classic Car Parade and Rockin’ Street Dance

The streets of Downtown San Rafael will come alive once again as the tradition of  “cruising” and 50’s and 60’s nostalgia as one of the North Bay’s largest car displays and parade comes to Fourth Street for the 24th consecutive year.  May Madness, the longest running Street Rod Show and Parade in Northern California, is presented by the San Rafael Business Improvement District (BID). This is a fun, free family event.
 
Hundreds of classic automobiles, custom hot rods, and vintage roadsters will be on display as thousands of spectators come from throughout the Bay Area to view these classic street machines of yester year, cruise the main drag of Fourth Street, and enjoy children’s activities, food, beer tasting and listen to some very hot dance bands  featuring the foot stomping, roots rocking, Americana based Rockabilly band Blue Diamond Fillups and the smokin’ Bay Area 50’s Rock n’ Roll Band the High Rhythm Hustlers
