Arizona Concours d’Elegance 2027 Opens Call for Entries

The 2027 Arizona Concours d’Elegance, returning for the 5th year to the Scottsdale Civic Center on Jan. 24, 2027, has announced its call for entries, seeking rare, exquisite and historically significant automobiles for the show and competition.

At this year’s event, Ferrari is the honored marque, celebrating 80 Years of Ferrari Excellence, with many examples of the legendary Italian racing and sports cars expected for up-close viewing on the lawns in Scottsdale’s Old Town district, event organizers stated in a press release.

2027 Arizona Concours Competition Classes

The Arizona Concours is professionally judged and curated, and 16 classes have been chosen for the 2027 event, which will feature approximately 100 vehicles ranging from the dawn of motoring to the Art Deco era, post-war sports cars and modern hypercars.

Awards will be presented in each class, along with special awards, including the two Best of Show trophies: one for pre-World War II and one for post-war. The overall theme for the 2027 Concours is “The Art of Elegance at Speed.”

Along with the classes honoring Ferrari, other special classes for 2027 will feature endurance racing cars (e.g., Le Mans, Daytona and Sebring) of the late 20th Century, as well as the Arizona Concours’ first class dedicated to Japanese cars, pre-2005, including rare JDMs (Japanese Domestic Market). A full class for motorcycles has yet to be decided, noted the release.
