About This Event

Friday August 14, 9 am to 4 pm at Quail Lodge, the 23rd edition. The four celebrated classes for 2026 are Route 66's centenary, the Lamborghini Diablo, Legacy of Japanese GTs, and the Ferrari F40 — none of them Porsche. What brings Porsche owners is that Porsche is a confirmed Sapphire-tier sponsor for 2026, the tier it shares with Acura and Lamborghini, so there is an official brand footprint and historically that has meant debuts. Worth knowing before you commit: The Quail sells out well in advance and is the most expensive single day of the week.
