It is considered amoung car collectors as one of the most iconic and valuable pre-war cars in the world. Its blend of exquisite design\, superior engineering\, and luxurious details makes it a prime example of the pinnacle of automotive art from the era. \n\nIn 2025\, the featured classes include three marques celebrating major milestones: Chrysler\, Invicta\, and Moretti each mark their 100th anniversaries. \nOther highlights include a tribute to the 60th anniversary of the Shelby Cobra 427\, a showcase of post‑war designs by Virgil Exner\, and a class dedicated to historic and modern Formula 1 racing legends. \nThis event is considered the pinnacle of concours competitions. Entry is highly selective—most entrants spend years restoring vehicles to strict standards of authenticity and condition\, with individual cars valued in the mid‑six to seven figures. Acceptance alone is a mark of prestige. \nIn 2024\, a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports\, presented by Fritz Burkard of The Pearl Collection\, won the coveted Best of Show award. It was the first time in the Concours’ history that a preservation-class car—unrestored and original—received the honor. \n\nAward Ceremonies \nThe Concours day concludes with an awards ceremony attended by crowds lining the fairway and grandstand. The presentation of top awards—including Best of Show—often makes headlines and can significantly elevate a car’s market value. The energized atmosphere provides a memorable finale to a day of automotive excellence. \nThe awards ceremony at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance typically unfolds mid‑afternoon on \n\nConcours Sunday: \n\nThe show field opens to credentialed spectators at approximately 5:30 a.m.\, and general judging begins at 8:00 a.m.\nThe Awards Ceremony and live show\, which includes presentation of class winners\, special trophies\, and the pinnacle Best of Show\, is scheduled between  1:30 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. \n\n\nFor new collectors\, Pebble Beach is a unique learning opportunity—displaying automotive history in real-world form. For veteran collectors and restorers\, it’s a benchmark event that validates years of effort and craftsmanship. \nIn 2025\, this prestigious gathering once again underscores why it remains the most important event in the collector-car calendar. \n\nWATCH PEBBLE BEACH CONCOURS STREAMING BELOW \n \nQ: HOW TO WATCH PEBBLE BEACH CONCOURS DELEGANCE STREAMING LIVE BROADCAST LIVE ONLINE?\nA: The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance will be broadcast live streaming in the above video or on youtube.com on August 17th at 1:15 PM PST \n\nThis year\, Amanda will preside over the opening ceremonies of the Pebble Beach Concours on Sunday\, August 17\, 2025\, at the iconic Pebble Beach Golf Links in Monterey\, California. \nAmanda’s exceptional work at Goodwood\, where she presented both the Festival of Speed and the Revival programs for ITV\, speaks volumes about her expertise in the automotive world. \nShe’s poised to take the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance to unprecedented heights\, bringing her distinct insight into the realm of car collecting. \nThis year\, the Concours will proudly display over 300 collector cars\, with some venerable models dating back to 1886 and others showcasing the innovations of 2025. \n\n \nThe 2025 Pebble Beach Concours will feature an iconic collection of classic vehicles\, from classic antique cars and pre-war brass-era vehicles to post-war automobiles and vintage American muscle cars. \nAdditionally\, visitors can expect to see contemporary models\, exotic supercars\, innovative concept cars\, and the latest electric vehicles. \n\n\nKey Details: \n\nDate: Aug 17\, 2025\, 10:30 AM – 5:00 PM\nLocation: The Lodge at Pebble Beach\, 1700 17-Mile Drive\nHighlights: Esteemed classic car show\, the culmination of Monterey Car Week\, and the flagship event of Pebble Beach Automotive Week.\n (Buy Tickets)\n\n\n  \nThe Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance event takes place on the scenic 18th fairway (Above Photo) of the Pebble Beach Golf Links Gold Course and showcases +300 of the most exquisite\, elegant\, expensive\, and rare automobiles in the world.
