M1 Concourse said today that it has a new partnership with iHeart Media’s classic rock radio station, 106.7 WLLZ – Detroit’s Wheels. WLLZ will be on-site for live broadcasts during Woodward Dream Cruise (the free event on Woodward that over decades of time unofficially spilled over to days before and after the event, leading some locals in adjacent towns to think of it as a nightmare) and the Woodward Dream Show at the M1 Concourse that happens the Friday before cruise weekend (AutoInformed: Dream Cruise – Roadkill Nights Moves to Woodward Ave)
Both organizations have created M1 After Hours. This is a live concert with music from Katmandu, Captured Detroit, and the Brendon Lindsley Band. Family-friendly activities and entertainment are claimed to be a major segment of this show. The Kids Zone, presented by Meijer, will have fun activities for the whole family.

M1 Concourse will provide R/C cars, slot cars, pedal cars, and painting activities for children to enjoy. A variety of food trucks and beverages will be in the Arena for guests to indulge in during show hours. For what’s said to be “an elevated culinary experience,” guests can upgrade to Hot Rod Café and enjoy catered food and cocktails out of the hot sun and in the cool M1 Concourse Event Center.
Other aspects of Friday’s Woodward Dream Show schedule on 18 August include:
- Access to all show and display cars
- Insiders’ Garage Speakers Symposium hosted by WLLZ’s Doug Podell People’s Choice voting and car awards
- A skydiver • A flyover from the classic military airplane nicknamed the “Flying Fortress”
The Corvette Anniversary Exhibit will celebrate 70 years of Corvette and feature a display of 70 Corvettes, one Corvette from each production year, including the only 1983 Corvette that is located in the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY. Guests can find this display on the M1 Concourse Event Center Plaza.
To close the weekend, Saturday’s itinerary includes the Woodward Dream Parade and the M1 Cruise-In. The Woodward Dream Parade is an “invite only” parade of 200 cars that will cruise the legendary Woodward Avenue going through downtown Pontiac and back to M1 Concourse. The M1 Cruise-in is open to cars interested in parking on-site during Woodward Dream Cruise on Saturday 19 August. Parking is available for hot rods, custom cruisers, and specialty interest cars as well as family and everyday cars.
General Admission Tickets are 50% off the 2022 show price, now only $25. Visit woodwarddreamshow.com to purchase tickets for more information.
M1 Concourse
M1 Concourse says it blends style and speed, offering the perfect automotive events and entertainment venue at its 87-acre property including a 28,000-square-foot event center. This state-of-the-art facility has indoor and outdoor spaces that overlook the 1.5-mile M1 Circuit and a dynamic area in the center of the track. “M1 can transform any event into a one-of-a-kind, exclusive experience. It’s conveniently located on the legendary Woodward Avenue in the city of Pontiac and is less than 35 miles from Detroit’s Metropolitan International Airport.”
