Audrain Newport Concours & Motor Week

Happening Sep 28 - Oct 1, 2023

Welcoming the world’s most exclusive auto brands and car collections in addition to other luxury brands, including Northrop & Johnson, Audrain Concours and Motor Week is one of the world’s most exciting and eclectic automotive events.

Historic Newport, Rhode Island, will be brimming with luxury cars, both classic and modern, as activities during the event take place everywhere around the city from famed Bellevue Avenue to the International Tennis Hall of Fame to a parade across the Claiborne Pell Newport Bridge, events at various mansions, including the mansion of Doris Duke, all culminating with the Concours on Sunday at spectacular Breakers Mansion where judges will award the coveted Willie K. Vanderbilt Trophy.

This year’s event includes a VIP reception, symposiums and seminars, “The Gathering” at Rough Point, the Wine by the Water wine tasting event at 41 North Marina, “Hilltop Hangouts,” the Bonhams Auction, the Audrain Auto Museum Annual Fundraising Gala and, of course — the pièce de résistance of the event — the Audrain Newport Concours d’Elegance. Once again this year, David H. Kinney, ASA will return as Chief Judge for the Concours d’Elegance.

The full event lineup can be found below. Limited tickets are on sale now at audrainconcours.com.
