A 1954 Ferrari 375 MM Ghia took Post-War Best of Show at the fifth annual Concours at Wynn Las Vegas, while a 1933 Hispano-Suiza J12 claimed the Pre-War title. Held from October 31 to November 1, 2026, the sold-out event drew more than 7500 visitors and showcased 385 collector cars with a combined value of over $1.3bn.
“Hosting our fifth Concours at Wynn is a very proud milestone for all of us, but what is most meaningful is how the event has continued to evolve and elevate each year,” said Brian Gullbrants, chief operating officer at Wynn Resorts North America. “We owe the collectors, judges, OEMs, hypercar owners, auto enthusiasts and our Wynn staff here a huge thank you.”
Both cars had already won their classes before taking overall honours. Thomas Peck’s Ferrari topped the Ferrari 1952-1973 class, and the Nethercutt Collection’s Hispano-Suiza won Pre-War European 1925-1939.
This year’s event saw an evolution in how the concours is judged. Co-chief judge Chris Kramer confirmed the M100 judging format has been extended to supercars, hypercars and restomods, and that cars will also be judged in motion in future editions.
“What makes Las Vegas so special is Wynn’s ability to try things that haven’t been possible at a concours before,” Kramer said. “The quality and diversity of the cars keeps rising, and so does our responsibility as judges.”
Among the specialty awards, Bruce R McCaw’s 1930 Bentley Speed Six Coupe with Gurney Nutting coachwork was named Most Elegant Pre-War, while a 1977 Maserati Khamsin owned by Greg Linderer took the Post-War equivalent. The event’s Honorary Helene Awards recognised Sandra Button with a Lifetime Achievement award and Rimac founder Mate Rimac as Celebrated Innovator.
The weekend also hosted a series of major unveilings, including a world debut of the Pagani Huayra 70 Anima – presented by Horacio Pagani himself. The Aston Martin Valhalla Spider also made its world premiere and McLaren gave its McL 6GT its first public showing. Bugatti, meanwhile, marked 20 years in the US with its Bolide-based Destrier.
Other reveals included the global debuts of the Gunther Werks Brundle Edition Turbo and CÄVEN Atelier’s first car, the Lamborghini Gallardo-based HOMMAGE 26. Apollo and Lanzante gave the EVO and TAG Turbo Championship their respective US debuts.
Several records fell on the concours field this year, too. A tribute to endurance racing’s GT1 era saw a record 19 GT1 models showcased, including ten McLaren F1s. A record 43 Paganis were also on display, while 25 Porsche Carrera GTs represented one of the model’s largest-ever gatherings.
Broad Arrow’s second annual Las Vegas auction was another record-breaking feature of the event. The 84-lot sale brought in $92.8m at a 76 percent sell-through rate, making it the highest-grossing collector car auction ever held in the city. Eleven world-record auction prices were set, led by a 1997 Ferrari F50 that achieved $18.7m. You can read Magneto‘s full auction report here.
