In French, a “concours d’elegance” means “competition of elegance.”
Minnesota’s own 10,000 Lakes Concours d’Elegance was held on the shores of Lake Minnetonka for seven wonderful years from 2013 through 2019. Thanks to the generosity of the amazing owners of our area’s most historically significant and superbly conditioned automobiles, as well as a slew of volunteers, the event was a can’t-miss experience for car enthusiasts.
Now, following a few years of detours, we are thrilled to announce its return in 2024 in a new home on the grassy in-field at Canterbury Park in Shakopee!
We invite you to mark your calendars and plan to spend a leisurely afternoon wandering the infield, meeting the owners, and discovering the intriguing stories behind more than 125 invite-only museum-quality vehicles. Enjoy a display of historic tractors and other farm equipment too! There will also be delicious food, wines, live music, and other attractions.
The 10,000 Lakes Concours d’Elegance will be Sunday, September 15, 2024, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Proceeds will benefit Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare.
