The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering 2015 (Long Version)
A prominent component of the historic Monterey Car Week, The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering is a world-renowned motorsports event featuring one of the world's finest and rarest collections of vintage automobiles and motorcycles. Conceived by the team behind the renowned Peninsula Hotels, The Quail is not only known for its vehicles, but also for the luxury lifestyle and fine culinary components. The admission fee is inclusive of six gourmet culinary pavilions that pay tribute to the world’s great cities that are home to The Peninsula Hotels, as well as caviar, oysters, fine wines and specialty cocktails, champagne, and more.
Regarded for its intimate, garden-party setting and relaxed, easily maneuverable display areas, The Quail is sponsored by the world's top luxury automobile companies, retail and lifestyle brands, fine art galleries, beverage companies, and more! Held in conjunction with The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering is the annual Bonhams Quail Lodge Auction that takes place on the western grounds of Quail Lodge & Golf Club - offering easy access, convenient parking, and an abundance of sunshine. The Bonhams Quail Lodge Auction is the longest running auction held during Monterey Car Week!
In both 2013 and 2014, The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering was once shortlisted for The International Historic Motoring Award, one of the most coveted awards in the classic car industry honoring motoring events that “showcase excellence, innovation, and provide the benchmark by which the world of historic cars judges itself.” Nominations are received from around the world from a variety of disciplines. The geographical spread of the historic motoring movement is emphasized by its list of finalists each year, which includes events, companies, cars and individuals from across Europe, the United States, Asia, and Australia.
