Ready to get out of the house this summer with the family, while helping out an amazing cause? This year, Wishes on Wheels celebrates its 22nd year of helping children’s wishes come true with fabulous events and opportunities that raise money for the Make a Wish Foundation and offer a day of fun.

The event is an exciting annual tradition for Connecticut Wish kids who get the opportunity to pick their favorite truck and get to ride along as a guest in a long truck convoy that leaves from Rentschler Field and is escorted down the highway by the Connecticut State Police.

In 2019 the convoy for Wishes on Wheels consisted of 647 vehicles, making this event the longest truck convoy in New England.
