2026 Geneva Concours d’Elegance
The Geneva Concours d’Elegance is held on Third Street in downtown Geneva, using the historic downtown as the backdrop. The event focuses on antique, classic, exotic, race and modern automobiles, with an emphasis on the cars’ heritage, artistic design and engineering significance.
It is not simply an open-entry car show. The main Concours is invitation-only; owners submit their cars for consideration and selected vehicles are invited to participate. There is also a separate area for car clubs.
The field is eclectic, which is one of its attractions. You can see everything from:
Pre-war and brass-era automobiles
British sports cars
European marques
American classics
Coachbuilt and highly unusual automobiles
Race cars
Exotics and significant modern cars
The event awards the distinctive “Benz” Trophies to selected winners.
For someone interested in Morgan, Austin-Healey, Jaguar, MG, Triumph, Alfa Romeo, Porsche and other British/European marques, this is the sort of event where the cars themselves—and their provenance and originality—are much more important than simply having a flashy vehicle.
