Description

Motorlux, the signature opening event for Monterey Car Week, is set to return on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, at the Monterey Jet Center, bringing together an exceptional display of rare automobiles and aircraft with a premium culinary and hospitality experience. The one-of-a-kind evening features globally inspired cuisine, curated wines and cocktails, live entertainment, and immersive automotive experiences, setting the stage for the week’s celebrations. For the first time ever, Hagerty introduces the Motorlux VIP Cabana—private spaces designed for those who want the ultimate Motorlux experience. Perched above the runway and just steps from the dance floor, your cabana offers a front-row seat to the energy, elegance, and indulgence of the evening. Inspired by the 2026 car classes and the specific regions they represent, attendees will indulge in exceptional culinary offerings from fresh and flavorful Japanese cuisine to premier French wines and from the pubs of England to the majestic Italian Riviera. Plus, experience California’s most celebrated chefs alongside award winning wines and one-of-a-kind cocktails. More information available at: https://motorlux.com/
