Detroit Auto Show [NAIS] and Concours to Overlap

It looks like we will finally get our first warm weather auto show and it promises to be dazzling with the main show at Huntington Place [fka Cobo Hall] and Concours surrounding the DIA. Ticket go on sale tomorrow.

"Overlapping showcases will travel through time, country

Two of southeast Michigan's signature automotive events will join forces this September to promote their new formats and the beauty of fall in the Great Lakes.

"From the riverfront to the Cultural Center, Detroit will be abuzz with everything from the latest electric vehicles and self-driving technology to million-dollar classics as the North American International Auto Show and Detroit Concours d'Elegance share a weekend.

"The auto show's first weekend, including the ever-popular Charity Preview on Friday night, will overlap with the Detroit Concours Sept. 16-18. Other events will include the auto show's first public days showcasing dozens of new cars in Huntington Place convention center, car collectors gathering near Comerica Park on Saturday and 140 classic cars of all eras on the grounds of the Detroit Institute of Arts on Sunday, Sept. 18.

“Downtown Detroit is going to be incredible,” NAIAS executive director Rod Alberts said. After a 3 1/ 2-- year hiatus, the auto show returns, with plans to take advantage of the beautiful fall weather."

Awesome news... thanks Lowell!! Great to have the Concourse in the Cultural Center.

Now if they would only bring the Festival of the Arts in Midtown back... and piggyback it to the other 2 events! :)
