New York Auto Show celebrates 125 years

Fans of major auto shows will be pleased to learn that the New York Auto Show, held annually over the Easter weekend, will celebrate its 125th anniversary from April 18 to 27 at the Jacob Javits Convention Center.

Spanning over 1000 square feet, the event will showcase more than 700 vehicles. The first New York Auto Show took place in 1900 at Madison Square Garden, bringing together 69 manufacturers and attracting around 48 000 visitors at a time when the automobile was still in its infancy.

To mark this milestone, organizers added a special exhibit featuring vintage posters and several iconic vehicles highlighting key moments from this legendary event.
