T ake the best of the best, most prestigious car events, synonymous with style and luxury, which for decades have been referred to as “Concours d’Elegance” (competition of elegance), where you will find the most meticulously put-together and rare cars set on the most meticulously kept up of greens for a well-curated picturesque show. The theme has been consistent since the concept’s inception to the fanfare events put on around the world today. The recipe for success? Cars. Design. Style. Elegance.
RM Sotheby’s, long known for building the spectacular and exceeding expectations, has joined with Sotheby’s and Moda Events in building its own enticing destination of vehicles and luxury—a new destination for car enthusiasts encompassing the rare, prestigious, and eclectic, combined with other accoutrements to entertain outside of the car wheelhouse. This event is ModaMiami.
Over the multi-day luxury affair, enthusiasts can enjoy what they love most: rare, unique, and awe-inspiring vehicles, from the auction preview on Thursday, February 29, to the final show day on Sunday, March 3. No two days will be alike as nearly 300 cars will grace the showfield throughout the weekend, including 150 hand-selected vehicles touting their rare histories and desirable attributes, 100 super-specced supercars and hypercars as part of our exclusive 100 Club, and a special “centenary plus one” celebration and showcase honoring the life, legacy, and work of legendary automaker Carroll Shelby. Or make it a date night under the stars and enjoy a strolling dinner with the other stars of the evening: the cars.
For the culinary curious, enjoy a tour of the finest food offerings from the cultural epicenter that is Miami, or make it a special evening and enjoy a one-night-only curated menu from celebrity chef Mario Carbone. Bask in the complimentary refreshments and comforts provided by the Casa Tua Club Lounge as a Club Moda ticket holder.
