Anticipation is already building for Monterey Car Week 2026, taking place from the 7th to 16th August 2026. Widely regarded as the pinnacle of the global collector car calendar. Set against the stunning backdrop of California’s Monterey Peninsula, the week-long celebration will once again bring together the world’s most significant classic and modern automobiles, along with collectors, enthusiasts, and industry leaders from across the globe.

At the heart of the festivities lies the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, where the finest historic automobiles compete for top honours on the famous 18th fairway. Expect a meticulously curated field showcasing everything from pre-war elegance to post-war icons, with several special classes likely to mark important anniversaries and coachbuilding milestones.
Beyond the concours lawn, auctions will play a major role in shaping the market narrative. Leading houses such as RM Sotheby's, Gooding & Company, and Mecum Auctions are expected to present headline consignments, including rare Ferraris, significant competition cars, and blue-chip modern collectibles. As always, Monterey will serve as a barometer for the health and direction of the global collector car market.
