Celebrating 35 years of passion for Ferrari, Cavallino Inc. is proud to share key updates for the future of the world’s most prestigious Ferrari Concorso d’Eleganza.
- A New Chapter Begins: Due to the continued and growing success of the Palm Beach Cavallino Classic, the event will move to the stunning location of The Boca Raton starting in 2026.
- Honoring Tradition: A special showcase of past Best of Show winners from the first 34 editions of Cavallino Classic will take place at The Breakers Resort, the very place where the Concorso was born and has flourished over the years.
- A New Date for 2026: The Palm Beach Cavallino Classic 2026 will be held from February 13 to 16, avoiding the traditional overlap with another major Florida event, the 24 Hours of Daytona.
- A Timeless Formula: The event’s signature format remains unchanged, featuring the Tour d’Eleganza, the Saturday Concorso, and the Classic & Sports Sunday at Mar-a-Lago, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all participants and guests.
With these exciting developments, Cavallino Classic continues to evolve while staying true to its heritage—celebrating Ferrari excellence in an unparalleled setting of elegance, passion, and tradition.
The remarkable success of the 34th annual Cavallino Classic Palm Beach, marked by an extraordinary turnout of participants and spectators, underscores how dramatically this prestigious Concorso d’Eleganza has evolved since its inaugural edition in 1992. Celebrating Ferraris from every era—both road and competition models—the event has long been synonymous with automotive excellence.
Historically set against the iconic backdrop of The Breakers, one of North America’s most renowned venues, the Palm Beach Cavallino Classic has recently witnessed significant growth. This growth, coupled with The Breakers’ upcoming multi-year renovation plans that impose limitations on hosting large-scale events, has inspired a thrilling new chapter.
In 2026, the 35th milestone anniversary will be celebrated at the distinguished venue, The Boca Raton, from February 13–15. This strategic shift away from overlapping with the 24 Hours of Daytona weekend promises an even more immersive experience for Ferrari enthusiasts.
The Boca Raton’s stunning architecture, recent transformation, and scenic 18th fairway offer an unmatched setting that accentuates the elegance and spectacle of the Cavallino Classic. Attendees will enjoy expanded, sophisticated spaces complemented by exceptional culinary offerings and impeccable service.
Maintaining its connection to tradition, Cavallino Classic will continue showcasing automotive masterpieces on The Breakers’ iconic front lawn, introducing a special class dedicated to past Best of Show winners from the event’s first 34 editions. These exceptional vehicles will be presented in a unique, once-in-a-lifetime exhibition at The Breakers on Friday before participating in the Concorso on Saturday.
The comprehensive event schedule includes the traditional rally, the Concorso d’Eleganza, and the Classic and Sports Sunday at Mar-a-Lago on February 16th. Additionally, the special “35th Anniversary Exhibition” promises to delight guests at both The Breakers and The Boca Raton.
Car submissions for consideration are currently open, with ticket sales set to begin in early June.
