The Concours of Elegance is taking place in Edinburgh from 4-6 September, bringing together 60 of the world’s rarest cars from 1902 to 2015.

We are pleased to offer you the chance of winning two VIP passes to the event worth just under £500. Her Majesty The Queen has graciously granted permission for the Concours to be held at her official residence in Scotland – the Palace of Holyroodhouse –  uniquely marking the fourth consecutive year this award-winning event has been held at a Royal Venue.

The Concours of Elegance began at Windsor Castle in 2012, before moving to St James’s Palace in 2013, with 2014’s event taking place to huge acclaim at Hampton Court Palace, with around 10,000 attendees and more than a few famous faces.Concours of Elegance can now officially announce some of the special guests attending the event this year, including two Scottish legends: three-time Formula One World Champion Sir Jackie Stewart and three-time American IndyCar World Champion, Dario Franchitti.

We met the owner of one of the most important cars in Scottish motor racing history at the media breakfast in April. For all you petrolhead just turn up the volume!

A VIP ticket not only grants you access to the Concours of Elegance on the day of your choice, but it also allows you in to the Concours’ Private Hospitality Enclosure and Marquee. Throughout the day this reserved area will serve morning coffee, followed by a champagne reception and three-course lunch, and finally Afternoon Tea – all included with your ticket.

VIP guests will also have access to a complimentary bar, serving wine and soft drinks, as well as a reserved parking space, giving you easy access to the Concours. You’ll also be handed a free admission ticket for a tour of the Palace of Holyroodhouse, along with a Souvenir Catalogue for the 2015 Concours of Elegance.
