More than 50,000 attended last year’s Lake Mirror Classic Concours & Car Show, and this year's 25th anniversary edition is set to be even “bigger and better,” according to event director Robert D’Angelo. He gave some good reasons to back up that claim.

At least 10 automobile museums will participate, including The Brumos Collection, The Collection on Palmetto, Dezerland Park Orlando, Lane Motor Museum, Motorsports Hall of Fame of America, Revs Institute, Sarasota Classic Car Museum, Sebring Hall of Fame and Tampa Bay Automobile Museum.

Overall, organizers plan to host 200 concours vehicles, plus vintage wooden boats, Amphicars and antique bicycles. There will be 500 show vehicles for the Saturday open car show, 150 for Friday’s “Visit Central Florida–Hot Rod Rendevous” and 100 in Sunday’s Road Tour.

This year’s featured marques are Cadillac and Mercedes-Benz, and there will be more than 100 years of automotive history on hand for both. For example, expect to see a display of Mercedes-Benz 300 SLs.

Notable guests include Bill Warner, founder of The Amelia Concours d’Elegance and GM designer Kip Wasenko, who will also serve as the event’s grand marshal.

The Lake Mirror Classic Concours & Car Show takes place October 18-20 in Lakeland, Florida. For more information, visit lakemirrorclassic.com.
