Collectors and owners are invited to submit exceptional automobiles for consideration for the inaugural field.
Taking place on October 2, 2027, at Itasca Country Club, Chicago Concours will bring together a thoughtfully curated collection of automobiles that reflects both the heritage of concours tradition and the evolution of automotive collecting today.
The inaugural field is already taking shape, with a 2005 Ford GT and 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG from the Rich Harvest Farms Collection among the first automobiles confirmed for Chicago Concours. Now, we’re inviting other collectors and owners to help us build what comes next.
What we’re looking for
The inaugural field will place particular emphasis on modern classics from the 1980s through the 2010s, alongside significant American and European performance cars, supercars, hypercars and select historically significant automobiles.
We’re looking for vehicles with compelling stories, provenance, design, engineering or cultural significance, cars that deserve to be experienced and shared with a community of people who appreciate what makes them special.
Not every remarkable automobile fits neatly into a category. And that’s part of the point.
The inaugural field will celebrate where automotive collecting has been, and where it’s going next.
More than a display
Owners selected for the inaugural Chicago Concours will become part of an experience that goes beyond the automobiles themselves.
Vehicles will be presented across the fairways and greens of Itasca Country Club, with owners encouraged to spend the day alongside their cars, sharing their stories and connecting with fellow collectors, enthusiasts and guests.
Select vehicles will also participate in the judged concours, evaluated by a panel of automotive experts, historians and industry leaders.
Have a vehicle you believe belongs on the inaugural field?
