The Des Moines Concours is a premier exhibition of vintage,
classic and special interest collectible motor vehicles. Our event
celebrates the fine art, design evolution, amazing innovations,
and cultural significance of motor vehicles through the years, as
well as the talented designers and engineers who created them.
The Concours is held in downtown Des Moines on closed streets
surrounding the internationally recognized John and Mary
Pappajohn Sculpture Park, which features 31 works of art by 25
of the world's most celebrated sculptors. It is a free event and open to the public with 2019
attendance exceeding 12,000.
Proceeds from the 2021 Des Moines Concours d'Elegance will
once again benefit
Children's Cancer Connection, whose mission
is enhancing the lives of families affected by childhood cancer by
providing quality programs for education, recreation and
support. The Des Moines Concours has provided over $100,000,
which supports up to 50 campers every summer. Kids involved
with Children's Cancer Connection get the chance to participate
in Hagerty Youth Judging each year at the Des Moines Concours.
