The Palm Beach Cavallino Classic will return on February 13-15, 2026, marking the 35th edition of the event – and at a new home, The Boca Raton in Florida.
The programme begins with Friday’s Tour d’Elegance and evening reception, followed by the Concorso d’Eleganza on Saturday, and concluding with Classic & Sports Sunday, held at the Mar-a-Lago Club.
A new addition for 2026’s Palm Beach Cavallino Classic is the Cavallino Auction by RM Sotheby’s, focusing exclusively on Ferraris drawn from private collections. Among the cars up for auction are a one-of-one 2018 Ferrari 488 GTB 70th Anniversary in Rosso Mugello ($350k-$400k), the only 2009 430 Scuderia Spider 16M to be finished in Blu Pozzi over Terra Bruciata ($925k-$1m), a 1965 Ferrari 500 Superfast Series I ($1.3m-$1.6m) and one of six 275 GTB/4s finished in Rosso Rubino over Beige (€3.4m-$3.6m).
However, the rarest option will be the above Michelotti-boded 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona NART Spyder – the Marion Spyder, built for Luigi Chinetti’s wife. The first of three Michelotti-bodied Spiders built for Chinetti, it was originally delivered to a Dr Silva, but had been returned to Chinetti by the mid-1970s. It then went back to Michelotti for a two-tone blue over grey paint scheme and orange leather interior. Chinetti gifted the car to his wife in 1977, but then loaned it back to Michelotti, who displayed it on his stand at the 1980 Turin Motor Show.
It then spent two years on display at the Le Mans Museum, before returning the US in 1985. Mrs Chinetti had passed away, so it was sold on. It passed through several dealers and collectors before joining the Jon Shirley collection in 1991. It changed hands in 2013, and again in 2019. It’s estimated at between $600k and $750k.
The 2026 Cavallino Classic will also include displays of Ferrari’s current production range. The manufacturer is scheduled to present the North American debut of the 849 Testarossa during the Friday evening event, while the broader model line-up will be shown across the weekend. This will include the newly launched Amalfi, which will be demonstrated dynamically.
In addition, a newly commissioned Ferrari One-Off model will be shown publicly for the first time at Casa Ferrari. A dedicated area will also be allocated to Ferrari Classiche and The Ferrari Foundation, with examples illustrating restoration programmes and past fundraising initiatives, such as a Tailor Made 812 Competizione and SP3 599+1.
