Classic Cars and Parades Roll In for the Weekend
Radcliff, KY · November 6, 2026
A stubborn blanket of gray clouds is settling over the rooftops this morning, but your weekend calendar does not have to look quite as muted. Between classic country tunes tonight and revving engines tomorrow, there is plenty worth stepping out for.
The Lead
Main Street in neighboring Vine Grove transforms into a corridor of rumbling horsepower and marching pride this Saturday as the annual Veterans Day Parade and Car Show opens regional holiday observances. Spanning 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, the daylong gathering brings together hundreds of active-duty soldiers, military retirees, and families from across the county line.
Downtown blocks will close to through traffic early Saturday morning to organize dozens of antique cruisers, custom builds, and emergency vehicles before the parade procession steps off down West Main. Alongside the polished chrome, local civic organizations and food vendors are lining the sidewalks to keep crowds fueled through the afternoon. Spectators planning to set up folding lawn chairs along the curb should aim to claim roadside spots well before midday, with vehicle awards wrapping up the show by late afternoon.
