The Concours d’Elegance, one of the best-loved Amelia Island events, is an annual showcase of more than 300 classic and exotic cars from around the world.
Displaying rare vehicles, elegant exotics from overseas, and customized machines with all the bells and whistles, this event is Amelia Island’s celebration of all things “car.”
And you can see it for yourself. Below is a guide to the details covering 2020’s Concours d’Elegance event – be sure to add it to your list of things to do while on vacation.
