2017 will once again see owners and aficionados of rare automobiles and the most beautiful historic motorcycles coming together from Friday 26th May to Sunday 28th May. The Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este holds a very special status among the world’s prestigious heritage events.

An exclusive panel of jury members led by president Lorenzo Ramaciotti judges for the Best of Show prize, the BMW Group Trophy. This is awarded for an extraordinary automobile, which expresses beauty, passion and uniqueness. The public will instead judge the best preferred car by Referendum on Saturday at Villa d’Este, which is awarded the Coppa d’Oro Villa d’Este.

Visitors to the three-day event in Cernobbio can also look forward to the highlights in the grounds of Villa Erba. Those include the auction and vehicle exhibition staged by RM Sothebys, and the Motorcycle Concours being held for the seventh consecutive year.
