Woodward Dream Cruise 2024 – Pics, Updates, and News!

Laura

Aug 07, 2024

Woodward Dream Cruise in next Saturday, August 17 –– it's a big event for Bronco, not only because it's the world's largest one-day car cruise, but also because it's in Ford's backyard.

Because of that, we get to do special activities leading up to it, on Thursday and Friday.

This thread is a place to get updates on times and parking, add pictures of your time at these events and the cruise, and if Ford drops anything special, and see the news –– some members got to be there for the first in-person reveal of Eruption Green, and new models like the Everglades, Raptor, and Heritage/Heritage Limited have showed up in the Bronco Corral, as well as the Sport's Black Appearance Package.

For those not attending, we will be doing a live LIVE from the Bronco Corral at 2PM ET on Saturday, so you can tune in to see some of the action and hear from Ford and other guests "in person."

We're excited for our time together as a community!

Any word when we'll know more about MY25 details? Previously this was released on or around the Bronco anniversary which was yesterday?

Nothing is out on the Full size Bronco yet...

Seems things are being released later than usual, for example Ranger info was released typically in May, no word on MY25 for Ranger as well.

Ranger was delayed for several months and they already had their refresh so not much is going to change with that. Bronco Sport is 8/26 if you look at the Ford Bronco Instagram page they just teased that.

Each vehicle has its own timeline. For the past 2-3 model years Bronco Sport was mid-summer (July into August). Bronco has always been late summer—last year it was August 14th, and for 2023 it was the first week of September (forgot the exact date). So... soon... probably.

But timelines also tend to shift slightly if there is a major refresh planned, and of course production got delayed last year with the UAW strike. I don't think a refresh has definitively been announced by Ford, but it would follow Ford's typical refresh cycle, most dealers are expecting one, and we got one for the Maverick.

BUT... well see. Ford does like to announce stuff for Woodward Dream Cruise. If I'm remembering right, the Eruption Green color for the 2022 Bronco was one of those Woodward Dream Cruise announcements. So you attendees may get to see something for 2025. 😁

There is (some) hope, we haven't been told to book the trip yet, so dates can shift. I'd be surprised if it shifts sooner, but hey... never know.

Heh... delayed until Sept 23rd. So... looks like I'll be officially a member of the live stream crew.

For those going, enjoy the trip!

I am so jealous…. I’m going to have to do this next year…. One more item for the bucket list…

Well, I guess instead of Woodward this year, this will have to suffice…

There has been a shift in parks for the Bronco Corral (attendees will be receiving this map and instructions by email today).

For our 1966-1996 owners, you will be parking in Stephenson Park.
All 2021-2024 owners will turn in before on that on Elm Park Blvd.
There will be a Ford display in between, where the bulk of our 6th Gens parked last year!

If you're a 2021-2024 owner looking for the North Lot, be sure to watch for your turn. Missing it means a decent circle-around on Woodward that we'd like for you to be able to avoid.

I've had Woodward on my list of things to do for years.
Starting in 2020, I keep putting it on the calendar and something always gets in the way. It's on next year calendar. And now I have the option of Bronco Nation.

There's a couple of us who get overwhelmed with peopleyness but like King of the Hammers the BN area is a bit of a refuge with shade and peace!

Hoping to make the 4pm photo at the Ford Headquarters. I'm going to try and sneak out of work early.😁

Won’t be able to make this because of work… hoping to attend the family reunion next year. 🤓
