Back to the Bricks is a car show held annually in Genesee County, Michigan.
The five-day event is structured with the first day having a Kick off party and "Brick Flick" automotive movie seen at the US 23 Drive-in Theatre, at least two days of Rolling Cruise, a Friday night car show & concert and Saturday car show down town.[fj 3] Additional, there is Automotive Pioneers Statue unveiling, "Artomotive" competition, Pinewood Derby race (2012-) and Hot Ride High program.
Back to the Bricks has expanded beyond the events in downtown Flint and Saginaw Street to add other supplementary events: two Satellite cruises, a Promo Tour and the county Tune Ups.[1][fj 4] Back to the Bricks is a part of Autopalooza August[fj 5] and one of the Flint Parade of Festivals.[2] The event has also inspired the names for other events in the City of Flint like Fish On The Bricks (since 2004),[fj 6] Bikes on the Bricks (since 2007),[fj 7] and Tractors on the Bricks (2017).[fj 8]
