Monterey Classic Car Week - The Events and Auctions

Thursday July 9, 2009

The annual pilgrimage to Monterey, California for the mother of all classic automotive events is about to begin. This year marks the 59th anniversary of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance – the world’s premier celebration of the automobile that will bring hundreds of thousands to the Monterey Peninsula.

Not only is Pebble Beach the most anticipated Concours of the year, but the entire week preceding the event is a buzz with multiple activities, glamorous parties, auctions, historic races, and exhibits. With so many things taking place, we always put together a calendar of where we need to be and when.

Here’s what this year’s schedule looks like:

Tuesday, August 11th

Wednesday, August 12th
  • The Quail Rally - 8am to 10:00pm
  • Automobilia Monterey - 10:00am to 7:00pm
Thursday, August 13th Friday, August 14th Saturday, August 15th Sunday, August 16th

Check back next week for our look at some of the very special vehicles that will be either on display or on the block in Monterey.
