The 2019 Atlanta Concourse d'Elegance, one the country's most prestigious car shows, will be moving its location to Tyler Perry Studios this fall. And to celebrate, organizers are reducing ticket prices during the month of April.
“We believe this is a premier event that everyone in Atlanta needs to be a part of,” said Bill Wallett, CEO of the Concours. “We are proud to have this event in the City of Atlanta. The venue is extraordinary, and we want to make sure as many people as possible have the opportunity to attend.”
Weekend tickets for the Concours, which will be held on Oct. 19-20, will be reduced to $55 this month, a savings of $30 from the normal ticket price. After April, the ticket price will increase.
The weekend offers visitors two days to view unique cars, with each day offering a different set of vehicles. On Sunday, however, visitors can experience the Concours competition, with dozens of rare cars from 1900 to 1968 on display at the former Fort McPherson site.
“The reason you come to this event,” Wallet said, “is to see cars you have never seen before. And the cars that we have, we will have a large percentage of them with values in excess of a million dollars. Some of these cars are the only one left of their type.”
Wallet said the move the Tyler Perry Studios makes the event more accessible to metro Atlanta residents.
“We’re easy to get to by car and we’re close to two MARTA stations,” he said. “We want everyone to see these works of art.”
Existing concours shows are held in places like Amelia Island, Fla., and along the California coast. But this show is the first in the Atlanta area.
