Classic Motorsports Amelia Island Kickoff: Think outside the box

Yes, our Classic Motorsports Amelia Island Kickoff has car blocks dedicated to American, British, German, Italian and Japanese cars, but that doesn’t mean that’s all that’s invited.

France? Sweden? Brazil? South Africa? Somewhere else entirely? They’re all invited, too, to our annual celebration marking the start of The Amelia weekend.

Use our Amelia Island Kickoff as a chance to inform the world about your lesser-known or oddball classic, as well as a rare opportunity to have your car on display during one of the most famous concours weekends in the classic car world.

Vehicle entry is $45, and all cars must preregister. Car clubs are also welcome, provided they make arrangements with our staff in advance by emailing us at AmeliaIsland@ClassicMotorsports.com.

Just want to view the show without entering a car? Unlike many events during the Amelia concours weekend, spectator entry is free.

We’ll also be sharing the showfield with the (in)famous Concours d’Lemons, the “un-concours” that celebrates terrible examples of great cars and great examples of terrible cars.

The Classic Motorsports Amelia Island Kickoff is made possible with car blocks presented by National Parts Depot and Classic Motorsports Road Tours, in association with Malihini Customs with help from Radnor Hunt Concours d’Elegance and a special thank you to the city of Fernandina Beach for making this event possible.
