AUTO SHOW ATTENDANCE AT ANAHEIM STADIUM
Five years ago the Orange County Auto Show outgrew Anaheim Convention Center and was moved to the Anaheim Stadium parking lot. Since then attendance has steadily climbed, going over the 200,000 mark this year. Since 1986, nearly 800,000 people have attended the show. However, the annual percentage increase in attendance fell precipitously this year, to less than half last year’s mark.
