Lake Tahoe Concours d’ Elegance

August 10 – 11, 2017

The first Concours d’Elegance was held in 1972, just after companies stopped making wooden speedboats and made the switch to fiberglass boats. This year we look forward to the 45th annual Lake Tahoe Concours d’Elegance. The event is staged at the historic Obexer's Boat Company in Homewood on Lake Tahoe’s beautiful West Shore.

Every time you see a wooden boat on Lake Tahoe, it’s hard not to marvel as it speeds by or pulls up to the dock as you sip cocktails on the Sunnyside deck. The Councours event brings all the wooden boats and wooden boat lovers together for an action packed weekend. On display are exquisitely maintained boats restored to the highest level of authenticity as they appeared when they were shipped from the factory. Boats and boat enthusiasts will travel from around the world to share their passion for wooden boats.
 

The weekend kicks off with the Opening Night Gala. The event takes place at the Tahoe Maritime Museum with wine, cuisine, music, art and dancing. Other social events that surround the Councours are the Men’s Grill and Ladies Luncheon that includes a fashion show. These are classic events that have become tradition for many who attend each year. The Concours d’Elegance is a timeless event that merges the history of Lake Tahoe with the finest setting and entertainment that Lake Tahoe has to offer today.
