In the heart of the Miami Design District, where creativity fuels luxury, one annual event stands out as the pinnacle of automotive elegance—the Miami Concours. This exclusive gathering, which celebrated its eighth edition in 2025 led by Design District visionary Craig Robins, transformed the district’s streets into a gallery of rare hypercars and timeless classics, while blending seamlessly with high fashion and contemporary art, attracting tens of thousands of car fanatics. This year was the biggest-ever outdoor supercar event to be held in Miami, with vehicles worth hundreds of millions of dollars on display.
Since its inception in 2014, the Miami Concours has grown into one of the country’s premier automotive celebrations, combining post-war automobiles, modern engineering, and cultural vibrancy within the Miami Design District. It has grown into one of the most lauded neighborhoods in the United States, combining luxury retail, art galleries, museums, design stores, and restaurants, all within an architecturally rich context. It is home to more than 200 luxury brands’ flagship stores, including Bulgari, Dior, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Balenciaga, and more. The Miami Design District was founded by Craig Robins and is owned by Robins’ company, Dacra in partnership with L Catterton and Brookfield Properties.

More than just a car show, the Concours has become an annual cultural event that bridges the worlds of automotive excellence, luxury fashion, and high design. Admission to the Concours was free, though paying VIP ticket holders enjoyed access to exclusive access to the exclusive Moore Building members club’s facilities, including an elevated culinary experience and signature bars. Inside, “Concours Talks: Design Driven” panel discussions were hosted by duPont REGISTRY’s Editor in Chief Charles Bradley, and starred Brett David (CEO, Prestige Imports – Lamborghini Miami), Paolo Trevisan (Head of Design, Pininfarina), female racing stars Tatiana Calderón and Carmen Jordá, John Temerian (Curated), and former Lamborghini engineering legend, Maurizio Reggiani.
Gracing the red-carpeted streets were ground-breaking automotive icons, including the McLaren F1, Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, Koenigsegg CCX, Pagani Huayra, Jaguar XJ220, Bugatti EB110, and Lamborghini Countach. There was a hive of Paganis, a phalanx of Ferraris—featuring several SP3s–and a collection of incredible McLarens—including the mighty Speedtail. The theme of this year’s exhibition was ‘Record Breakers’ with 150 historically significant cars on display, including the fastest and most iconic supercars on the planet. An undoubted star of the show was a stunning Ferrari 250 MM ’53, which was on display courtesy of duPont REGISTRY Tower Design by Pininfarina.

The automotive stunners included a 1983 Lamborghini Countach LP5000S, just one of four finished in the remarkable Bleu Tahiti color scheme, one of the 302 examples produced between 1982 and 1985. Le Mans Blue was the livery for Jaguar’s iconic XJ220 supercar, built between 1992 and 1994, and this one had just 1,988 miles on its odometer.
The wonderous McLaren F1 was finished in a classic shade of moss green with a fine brown interior, one of the 106 examples made. Curated Vintage Supercars brought one of the lowest-mileage examples of the Koenigsegg CCX in existence, with just 360 miles on the clock, and one of only 29 built. It also brought a stunning Veyron, with 4,134 miles on the odometer, which was number 37 of 48 produced. It’s also one of only eight that came to North America, and the only U.S.-spec example of the model painted deep Metallic Black with an all-black interior.
What sets the Miami Concours apart is its seamless integration of art and fashion into the automotive celebration. From street-style photography capturing attendees in couture fashion to collaborations with luxury brands, like the Ralph Lauren cocktail reception to allow VIPs to explore antique, vintage watch and jewelry selections, the event turned Miami’s finest district into a runway where high design meets high performance. The synergy between automotive craftsmanship and haute couture is undeniable—both celebrate precision, heritage, and bold innovation.
Meanwhile, renowned artists and local galleries curate special installations, drawing connections between the sculptural beauty of a Pagani Huayra and the fluid lines of contemporary masterpieces. Whether you were a collector, a fashion connoisseur, or an art aficionado, the Miami Concours offered something for everyone, encompassing a rare moment where these worlds collide in spectacular fashion.
