DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) – The 19th annual Dayton Concours d’Elegance is in full swing this Sunday at Carillon Historical Park.
The event is a fundraiser for the park and runs from 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Over 150 cars and motorcycles are on display, showing over a century of preserved automotive history. It will mark the 100th anniversary of Pontiac, which was founded by General Motors. (Dayton is home to one of General Motors’ largest presences outside Detroit itself.)
“For the first time, the preview party will be held indoors at the Eichelberger Pavilion at Carillon Historical Park. This year’s Speakeasy-themed event will feature a select number of automobiles displayed both inside the ballroom and throughout the surrounding grounds, giving guests an up-close look at some of the weekend’s most remarkable vehicles,” wrote organizers.
