Classic Cars on Display in South Bend: Concours d'Elegance at Copshaholm
The Concours d'Elegance at Copshaholm is one of the best annual events in South Bend and our real estate agents are pleased to see its return on Saturday, July 13. Classic car lovers from Indiana and beyond will cruise over to the John D. Oliver House to enjoy an afternoon gazing at stunning vehicles. This event is touted as one of the premier celebrations for automotive design and styling in the state. Though this is only the second year that the Copshaholm will host this event, the Concours d'Elegance is not new to Sound Bend.
Classic Car Show History
Concours d'Elegance's first event took place in 2005. From then until 2017, it was known as the Lake Bluff Concours d'Elegance. Taking place at Lake Bluff Park in downtown, the show featured dozens of automobiles and plenty of family activities. Unfortunately, Lake Bluff Park stopped hosting the event after its 13th year, leaving its future uncertain.
Thankfully, the Studebaker National Museum was interested in hosting their own Concours d'Elegance event. Partnering with their neighbor, The History Museum, the first Concours d'Elegance at Copshaholm took place in 2018. We're so excited that the Studebaker National Museum and The History Museum have agreed to host this event once again during 2019!
2019 Event Details
This is not a year to be missed! The Collector's Dinner will take place starting at 6 p.m. Friday night, and then prepare yourself for plenty of fun throughout Saturday afternoon. Vehicles will begin lining up at 7 a.m. and doors to the event will open at 9 a.m. At 10 a.m., you'll be able to tour the Concours & Museum Campus. Stop by the Studebaker Styling Studio on the museum's second floor from 10:30 a.m. to noon and 1:30 pm to 3 pm for a special look inside. Awards will be presented at 2:30 p.m. and the event will conclude at 5 p.m.
Tickets are priced at only $15 per adult. Members of the History Museum, Studebaker National Museum or Campus receive a reduced rate, paying only $5 per ticket. Best of all, children 12 and under can attend for free! Come out and see everything from vintage and historic automobiles to tiny microcars.
