About Us
An annual celebration of beauty, art, design and engineering, this 2 day premier motorsports event culminates with the prestigious Concours d’Elegance. In addition to more than 150 classic cars, featuring the finest examples of automotive excellence, exhibit areas will include displays of other collectible items such as jewelry, watches and art. Visitors will enjoy fine food, beverages and music while viewing rarely seen automobiles, many from private collections and museums.
In 2010, the setting for the Desert Classic Concours d’Elegance is the legendary La Quinta Resort and Club. Nestled against the Santa Rosa Mountains in the greater Palm Springs area it is renowned for world-class hospitality. Often recognized by prominent publications as one of the top destination resorts in the world, the 45-acres of lushly landscaped grounds and warm, perennial sunshine makes it an ideal paradise.
The Desert Classic Concours d'Elegance is a 501(c)(3), non-profit corporation. Net proceeds from the event will be donated each year to several charitable organizations in the Coachella Valley.
