Entrant
Vehicle acceptance to the Motorcar Cavalcade is conducted by our Selection Committee. Due to the unique nature of this Concours, which celebrates any and every distinguished vehicle—including current production models—anyone may submit any car for consideration. However, the Selection Committee will only accept cars that stand out from the rest; truly special, significant, newsworthy, distinguished, or unique vehicles.
Completely original cars, perfectly-restored vehicles, remarkable customs, cars with incredible provenance, milestone cars, record breakers, record-setters, the rare and the exotic—all are welcome for consideration.
Our classes are tailored to the incredible diversity and evolution of the automobile— and to celebrate them in their finest form. Our Classes can be found here. During the submission process, you will be asked to tell us about your vehicle. Our selection committee uses this information to help determine what class your vehicle will compete in.
Our unique approach of combining and contrasting old and new, foreign and domestic, original and custom—ensures a never-before-seen collection of spectacular and extraordinary cars; a palette of unique design, astonishing engineering and exquisite style.
Vehicle Submission
“Although the cars are the stars of the show, equally as important is the social gathering—because the only thing more remarkable than these cars is the community they create; the camaraderie and fellowship of enthusiasts brought together through a unifying passion for automobiles and their desire to share it.”
Our car community is unmatched, and Motorcar Cavalcade celebrates it all—the heart and soul of the cars, and the people who covet them.
Vehicle Classification
Unique to Motorcar Cavalcade is our approach to honoring all extraordinary vehicles – from the dawn of motoring, to the state-of-the-art, and all of the wonderful variants in between.
Although our cars will be on the show field competing for awards, our ultimate goal is to provide a palette of design, engineering, style and history – for both our car community to enjoy – but perhaps more importantly, to invite in and share with the admiring public – folks who may not immediately understand what we perhaps take for granted – how incredible and important the art of the automobile is.
We take our classes, judging and awards seriously, however, our event is not as much about winning awards, as it is about sharing our passion for the automobile with others. Motorcar Cavalcade is designed to help our friends and family better understand our love of the automobile – and perhaps, to get them hooked as well!

JUDGING & AWARDS
Motorcar Cavalcade will present some of the world’s finest automobiles, and to distinguish these vehicles, awards, and recognition will be given to the vehicles that stand above the rest—the vehicles with that certain “X factor.”
Awards will be given per class—Best in Class and Runner Up—as well as “Major” awards as vehicles compete between classes based on special, predetermined criteria. Unique to our event, all vehicles are eligible for our coveted Modern or Classic Era, “Best of Show” awards.
The Concours Committee will create groups of Judges who will be assigned to specific classes and Major award categories. It will be the Judges’ responsibility to find the cars that best exemplify the merits of, and the emotional connection between, the specific award they are responsible for and the cars on the field.
It is our goal to have remarkable people judging remarkable cars.
Our VIP Judges are just as unique as the cars they are judging; designers, historians, engineers, musicians, professors, CEO’s, artists and more—their unique perspective will provide an unbiased evaluation of the cars on the field. This approach allows seemingly disparate cars to be evaluated together, determining the best of the best in a whole new way.
Our VIP Judges will be assigned experienced Docent judges to help guide the process. These technically and traditionally trained Concours Judges will ensure knowledgeable and experienced hands are present to help with tie breakers, special considerations and other variables that surface when dealing with the complex task of choosing amongst the finest and most exquisite cars in the world.
In addition to our “Award Judges” and “Docent Judges,” our Chief Judge will oversee the showfield. All told, our judging and awards process is designed to allow a remarkable array of cars to compete against each other in the most dynamic, fair and enjoyable way—for entrants and spectators alike.
