The 2010 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance
Posted by Steve White on Feb 24, 2010
Since the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance was first held 15 years ago, it has grown to become one of the most prestigious automobile shows in the world. The event will be held from the 12th to 14th of March, 2010 at the Golf Club of Amelia Island at Summer Beach, and it promises to be grander and more exciting than ever before.
Last year, the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance attracted over 15,000 classic car enthusiasts from various parts of the world, and it is expected to draw more people this year. There will be about 250 fabulous cars on display at the show, and some of these are vehicles that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. During the main event on the 14th of March, all the participating cars will be lined up at the 10th and 18th fairways of the golf course, creating a stunning scene with the beautiful ocean in the background. The Honorary Chairman for this year’s edition will be 7-time NASCAR winner Richard Petty.
Other than the car show, the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance also features interesting events such as road tours, seminars, art exhibits, auctions, cocktail receptions, dinners and fashion show. Tickets are priced at $45.00 for adults and $20.00 for students aged 12 to 18.
