The Meadow Brook Concours d'Elegance is considered one of the most prestigious events of its kind in the world. Held on the grounds of Oakland University's historic Meadow Brook Hall, it is an elegant and world renowned event. The collector car show and its art auction support the preservation efforts of Meadow Brook Hall, a treasured historic mansion. The week-long annual event, which typically takes place at the end of July and into the first week of August, generally features a selected era in automotive history.
More than 15,000 people attend the Meadow Brook Concours d'Elegance each year to experience the splendor of the art, and the styling and sophistication of approximately 250 of the world's finest antique and classic automobiles displayed in a beautiful outdoor exhibition. Collector car enthusiasts inundate the exquisite grounds at Oakland University's grand hall to experience the grace and style of the classic cars at the Meadow Brook Concours d'Elegance.
Over the past years, the Michigan exhibition has grown into a week-long event as sponsors and supporters have allowed organizers to add events and features to create a Concours week that offers something for everyone.
