The streets of Beverly Hills will see a cavalcade of supercars and desirable classics on the move for Father’s Day next month. 

In place of the static Concours d’Elegance event, the Beverly Hills Tour d’Elegance has been designed to combine rare cars with Covid-safe family fun. 

Supported by the Rodeo Drive Committee in conjunction with the City of Beverly Hills, the event will be free for spectators to watch.

A moving cavalcade of classics

The Beverly Hills Concours d’Elegance has become a staple event for West Coast car fans, traditionally taking place on Father’s Day each year. Last year saw the event canceled due to Coronavirus, prompting a rethink for 2021. 

The challenge was to ensure spectators could view exotic cars, but in a way that allows for safe social distancing. As a result, organizers have opted for the moving Tour d’Elegance setup.

A selection of fifty of the world’s finest cars will follow a route through the center of Beverly Hills on the morning of Sunday, June 20. Celebrities from the world of TV and films, along with leading car collectors and city officials, will be on driving duty. 

Enthusiasts will be able to get a full map of the route nearer the time, with cars departing from the Petersen Automotive Museum.

Giving back to first responders

For 2021, the Tour d’Elegance event will be supporting the Beverly Hills Police Officers Association, and the Beverly Hills Firefighters’ Association. These two non-profit organizations deliver assistance to first responders injured in the line of duty, maintain scholarship funds for their children, and offer other support.

Beverly Hills Fire Department’s own 1928 Ahrens Fox fire engine will be one of the stars of the parade. It will be on the streets with the latest hypercars and priceless classics. 

Event founder Bruce Meyer commented that he is: “Thrilled to begin the return to normal with a fun, free, family-friendly event which will support our local first responders. They have supported all of us through the last year and now we have an opportunity to give back.”
