The 40th edition of the famed event Concorso Italiano took place at Bayonet Black Horse on Saturday, August 16. Additionally, we were introduced to a new multi-marque event, The Paddock, at the same venue on Friday, August 15. These events were integral to the organizers’ broader effort to develop an annual series of automotive-themed gatherings on the property over the next 3-5 years. Known as International Car Week, this series aims to fully utilize the new Grand Hyatt Resort, currently under construction at Bayonet Black Horse on the Monterey Peninsula.
Concorso Italiano triumphantly concluded its 2025 event, surpassing expectations and delivering a reimagined celebration of Italian lifestyle and automotive passion. The show captivated attendees with a curated showcase of iconic Italian vehicles, from classic sports cars to cutting-edge hypercars and resto-mods.
The meticulous selection of automobiles presented an extraordinary challenge for the judging panel. The lawn was a veritable masterpiece, featuring a diverse array of vehicles that epitomized Italian design and engineering.
