About This Event
Monterey Car Week kicks off August 7th, and if you're within driving distance of the Peninsula, you're already out of excuses. This is where it all starts before the auction madness and the serious collector stuff takes over. You'll get the lay of the land, scope out what's rolling in, and honestly, the early energy hits different—less crowded than mid-week, way more chill. Monterey in August is perfect weather anyway. Grab your crew, roll down early, and get a feel for what's about to happen. Head over to the official Monterey Car Week page for the full schedule and details on where everything's happening.
