2026 Cincinnati Concours d’Elegance

The 48th annual Cincinnati Concours d’Elegance is a nationally recognized automotive event celebrating automotive excellence. Vehicles are displayed in the historic gardens of Cincinnati’s Ault Park, with a classic pavilion overlooking the show field, featuring a brunch and a historic car display.

This year's featured theme is “100 Years of Mercedes-Benz”, celebrating style and performance and showcasing more than 200 cars and motorcycles. The show also includes a tribute to the cars featured in the movies Fast & FuriousTM and CarsTM, and Turbo Era Cars (1973-1993). The weekend features various social functions leading up to Sunday's Concours, offering automotive enthusiasts’ opportunities to connect and share their passion. To engage the next generation of car enthusiasts, the show will also feature a Legacy Library where kids can select complimentary car books, magazines, Hots Wheels® cars, and other automotive information. The Concours will once again seek youth judges interested in judging fine automobiles through its Hagerty Youth Judging Program. Proceeds benefit the Juvenile Arthritis programs of the Arthritis Foundation.
