Monterey Car Week 2023
I am planning to attend a few days this year.
Does anyone know the status of the "Concours on the Avenue"? Will it be held in 2023? The whatsupmonterey web page lists the event for Tuesday August 15th but says "not confirmed yet" next to it. I know it was canceled in 2022 apparently due to the passing of the founder.

Reviving this older thread. The event no longer shows up on the whatsupmonterey.com website FWIW. Anybody know whether it is still on? I doubt it.

Mid August is a good time to go to Monterey, especially if you are in central Kalifornia, Aridzona, Texass or any other uncomfortably hot place. Pretty much anywhere within 50 or 100 miles of the Gulf of Mexico can be rough in the Summer.
Vintage races 8/12+13, I think Wayne is going to that, maybe I will run down there https://hsrrace.com/2023-events/ oops, pre races, I was thinking Rolex weekend https://www.co.monterey.ca.us/government/government-links/weathertech-raceway/upcoming-events/monterey-reunion Even if there is not a car show those weekends, there is a car show that weekend. I saw the most incredible Fiat, took it to get coffee

You can catch us there checking out all the action on at the Werks Reunion show on Friday, August 18th!
Stop by our booth and meet our amazing staff and pickup some free goodies! We'll be there all day hanging out and walking around photographing all the awesome Porsches! ![]() |

[As everyone has demised by now, NO 2023 version of Carmels Cars on the Ave. This said appears two groups are trying to take up some of the slack. Looks like Hagerty is upping the size and quality of the Tues PM slot in Pacific Grove, kinda cars on the AVE light in past year. Additionally the Ladies with Cars Charitable group " Prancing Ponies " will have an event Thurs Aug 2nd ( 1100am -400pm ) in Carmel on Ocean Ave. Open to lady only ( or those identifying female ) car entries with proceeds ( Entry fee's ) supporting their charitable endeavors.
