Wheels | Watches | Whiskey will return to The Stella Hotel and Lake Walk in Bryan, Texas, on Saturday, Sept. 26, 2026, bringing together exceptional automobiles, fine timepieces, premium whiskey, art and hospitality for one of the region’s most distinctive automotive lifestyle events, organizers of the event announced in a press release.
Presented by The Stella Hotel and The Gentleman Racer, the annual event transforms The Stella Hotel and the surrounding Lake Walk grounds into an evening centered on craftsmanship, design, and the enduring appeal of machines made with purpose, the release noted.
Aston Martin & Shelby American Take Center Stage
Aston Martin will serve as the featured marque for 2026, with a curated selection of classic and modern vehicles showcasing the British automaker’s celebrated combination of performance, elegance and grand-touring tradition.
The event will also include a special section dedicated to vehicles from Shelby American. The display will celebrate Carroll Shelby’s Texas roots and the lasting influence of the drivers, designers, mechanics and machines that helped establish American performance on the international stage, organizers said.
“Each year, Wheels | Watches | Whiskey brings together people who appreciate great design, authentic stories, and the details that make an automobile or timepiece memorable,” said Michael Satterfield, founder of The Gentleman Racer. “With Aston Martin as our featured marque and a dedicated Shelby American display, this year’s event will connect two remarkable performance traditions in a setting that allows guests to experience the cars up close.”

Beyond the automotive displays, attendees can explore watches from participating brands and retailers, participate in curated whiskey tastings, and view work from featured automotive artists.
A portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit OnRamp, a Texas-based nonprofit organization that helps individuals and families in need of reliable transportation.
