Amelia Island (Florida) Auctions and Concours d’Elegance

15 January 2021 by Henk Bekker in Amelia Island, USA

The annual Amelia Island classic car auctions in Florida, USA, are held in conjunction with a Concours d’Elegance. These auctions by RM Auctions, Gooding & Co and Bonhams are the first major East Coast classic car sales of the year.

The Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance goes back to 1996 and has since grown to one of the most prestigious classic car events in the USA. The quality of the more than 200 cars on display ensured that classic car auctioneers soon followed. Currently, RM Auctions (official partner), Gooding & Co, and Bonhams have their first East Coast auctions of the year here in Florida. Other auctioneers also have sales during the long weekend. (Mecum starts the year early January with the massive Kissimmee auctions in Florida.)

Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance

The Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance has developed into one of the most important classic car events in the USA. In addition to showing and judging beautiful and valuable cars, the Amelia Island is also a charity event that collected more than $2.5 million since 1996.

The Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance is held in early March postponed to May in 2021 in sunny Florida while much of the American East Coast is still in the grips of winter. Classic car enthusiasts very much prefer sunny weather, especially when Concours-quality automobiles are on display. However, events are held come rain or shine.

In 2021, the Amelia Island Concours events are held from 20 to 23 March 2021 at the Golf Club of Amelia Island with further events in the Ritz Carlton. The biggest day is Sunday when the long list of winners is announced.
