A major Kentucky attraction is celebrating a milestone.

The National Corvette Museum is hosting its 30th anniversary of the Corvette caravan in Corvettes from every state.

And at least five countries began arriving in Bowling Green on Wednesday.

About 5000 Corvettes and 8000 people are expected to make the trek.

Activities are scheduled through the weekend.

Four people will be inducted into the Corvette Hall of Fame.

Every milestone anniversary, we've done a caravan and every second caravan has grown.

So we did one for our grand opening and then we just continued the tradition.

So every five years we had another caravan and each one a center to grow.

And people have come from farther and farther away.

So people from other countries have shifted.

Corvettes started with caravans and driven across the United States to be here with us.

The museum says it has significant economic impact, with hotels booked from Elizabeth Town to Nashville.

It's a rolling car show that begins at various starting points across the country.

Many of them make it an extended road trip, leaving a week or two in advance to visit sites along the way.

We started in Gettysburg.

We did the battlefield tours, went over to Lancaster County, Bird in the hand there, Amish country.

A lot of those folks have never been in those areas.

And then just the beautiful countryside living all the way down through through North Carolina and into Virginia and all that.

It's been a great experience.

And there's so many different cultures and people.

You know, when you get down here, it's y'all come back down here and we will.

Y'all better.

There is a free concert tomorrow night at Circle Square Park in downtown Bowling Green.

Generation Radio will perform, which includes band members from Rascal Flats, Chicago and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
