Monterey Car Week · Monterey Peninsula, California, United States
Monterey Car Week is a series of car-related events held annually every August in and around the Monterey Peninsula in California, United States. It is globally recognized as one of the premier gatherings for auto enthusiasts, with auctions, rallies, races, competitions, and car shows all culminating in the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance on Sunday. The tradition first began in 1950 as an outgrowth of the Pebble Beach Road Race. In the decades since, increasing official and unofficial car events sprang up, drawing an estimated 100,000 attendees in 2024, and hundreds of millions in auction sales.
Typical window: the week around the third Sunday in August. Organisers publish the following year's date at different points in the season — the official site above is the authority. This page is rebuilt on every deploy, so a confirmed date appears here as soon as it is public.
