The Blue Carpet Corridor is a unique section of Route 66 characterized not only by its Mother Road charm, but also its rich mining history and colorful mobster lore. Route 66 is known for its quirky attractions, roadside hospitality, and family fun. And every year on the third weekend of May, a special array of events celebrates our Route 66 heritage as each participating community plans its own activities.
But all year long, the blue carpet is rolled out to welcome you from Auburn to Collinsville along three historic alignments of the Mother Road. Enjoy a meal at a real mom and pop eatery. Discover innovative museums, towering monuments, historic buildings, and winding stretches of original highway. Find a treasure or a souvenir at a unique shop.
Come visit us on the Blue Carpet Corridor. And don't forget to bring your camera, because photo ops are plentiful.
