The NAIAS has been an annual staple of Detroit since 1899 and is one of the largest auto shows in the world. NAIAS is particularly important because the Metro Detroit Area is where you’ll find the headquarters of the Big Three: Ford, Chrysler and General Motors. This year, the show will run from January 14th to January 28th, with the 20th of January being the opening day for the public, and will showcase until the 28th of January.
