The streets of downtown Livermore are about to host an iconic event that brings together the charm of vintage automobiles and the lively spirit of the local community. On Sunday, September 24, the 2023 Altamont Cruisers Nostalgia Day Car Show will transform Livermore's downtown corridor into a haven for car enthusiasts, featuring pre-registered vehicles showcased alongside a lively farmers' market.

As the Livermore Police Department alerts residents and visitors to the festivities, it's important to take notice to avoid inconveniences that may arise from a change in the usual rhythm of activity in the area. The actual event is set to occur between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., but staging for pre-registered vehicles is allowed to start at 4 a.m.

These vintage cars, in all their glory, will quickly and completely alter the landscape. To accommodate this, road closures will be in place throughout the downtown corridor, including First, Second, and Third Streets, as well as S. Livermore Ave. between Railroad Ave. and Second St. Side streets intersecting the above closures will also be affected, making the area pedestrian-focused for the duration of the event.

The Livermore Police Department is urging residents and visitors to share this vital information to help everyone plan accordingly. Though traffic patterns and road closures are expected, the commitment to the community remains intact. The beloved Sunday Farmer's Market will still take place amidst the vintage cars, offering vibrant produce and local artisan goods on Second Street, between L Street and N Street.

The fusion of a nostalgic car show and a farmers' market, once confined to separate spaces, now seamlessly merge, showcasing a dazzling display of Livermore's rich, diverse, and ever-evolving culture.
