Concours des Légendes is described as a celebration of exceptional and rare vehicles, bringing together collectors, enthusiasts, and the wider community for an event of stunning automotive design, heritage, and storytelling.

The show is described as being much more than cars, with the stories behind the cars and the people being brought to the forefront.

The event will showcase a curated selection of classic and high-performance cars, alongside heritage skills such as a working forge!

The new event takes place at Wilton House, beginning on Friday, 19th June and running through to Sunday, 21st June.

Automotive artwork, an auction by Frome auction house Dore & Rees, and an impressive line-up of speakers, including Derek Bell, Stephen Johannson, Richard Attwood, and many more, create a premium but accessible experience for attendees.

Set within one of England’s great historic houses, it brings together exceptional cars and the people behind them, revealing their stories through curated displays, talks, workshops and storytelling.

Following in the footsteps of Wilton Wake Up and Wilton Classic and Super Car Show, this is the brainchild of the Earl of Pembroke.

Listen to the full interview as Andy talks to the Earl of Pembroke about the event and what people can expect.
