Collections Facility opening on the NCM Campus in 2027.
Tickets to tour the new Collections Facility will be made available on December 1st with the first public tours beginning on January 13, 2027. Tours of the Collections Facility are guided by NCM Staff & volunteers, and each ticket also includes self-guided admission to the National Corvette Museum.
The guided tours of the Collections Facility will offer visitors a behind-the-scenes look at how the Museum preserves and cares for vehicles in the collection. The tour will take visitors through vehicle preservation and restoration spaces while offering the opportunity to see Corvettes from every generation, including significant vehicles that are rarely on public display.
The NCM notes in the official press release that all tickets must be purchased in advance at corvettemuseum.org as tickets will not be sold at the Collections Facility. Tickets prices are currently being finalized and will be announced on December 1st. Members of the National Corvette Museum will also have to pay for guided Collections Facility Tours, however a representative told us that members can expect a discounted rate like the 30% savings that are provided with Plant Tours tickets.
Members of the National Corvette Museum will also be able to explore the collection through the NCM’s new Member Portal which now features all the Corvettes in the Museum’s collection. Discover your favorite vehicles in the collection and read their stories.

2026 Vets ‘n Vettes Honoring Those Who Serve
Since 2008, Vets ‘n Vettes has brought the Corvette community together to recognize and honor those who have served. From November 5–7, veterans, active-duty service members, Corvette owners, and supporters will gather in Bowling Green for three days built around Corvettes, community, and shared experiences. The weekend takes participants from touring laps at NCM Motorsports Park and scenic drives through South Central Kentucky to the Bowling Green Veterans Day Parade, where Vets ‘n Vettes participants will join the community in honoring our nation’s veterans. Luncheons, a banquet, and time together throughout the weekend round out the 2026 event. A Corvette is required to participate in event activities.
Online registration closes October 16, 2026 at 9:00 AM CT.
