Our very own London event returns once again this year, to the heart of bespoke tailoring in London’s Mayfair, with more collector cars and motorcycles than ever before. The Concours on Savile Row will take place on Wednesday May 22 and Thursday May 23, 2024, with free entry to the public from 10am-8pm on both days.
As in previous years, there will also be VIP-only areas for special guests of the sponsors and of the tailors based on the famous street.
In addition, for the first time, it will now be possible to purchase VIP hospitality tickets, thanks to a new partnership with renowned Savile Row Italian restaurant Sartoria. The VIP ticket entitles you to an Italian breakfast at Sartoria as well as a three-course meal later in the day. On top of this, you’ll get access to the many VIP activities taking place in tailors along the row. The VIP tickets are priced at £265 each; spaces are strictly limited per day. To book, please email Jasmine Love on [email protected], as soon as possible.
The majority of the tailors will be open to all visitors, with special craft demonstrations and displays taking place within their premises. In addition, the Royal Academy of Arts will host classic car seminars on both days – this year on restoration and preservation – how tailors, the automotive market and the art world view sustainability – and on the future of fuels. On the Wednesday evening, meanwhile, there’ll be a gala dinner in the Royal Academy’s Collection Gallery.
Back on Savile Row itself, the central stage will again feature live music and talks from celebrities and experts in both cars and tailoring. As for the vehicles, the full line-up will be revealed closer to the event, but many manufacturers and specialists are already confirmed, including newcomers to the event Alpine Cars, Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera and Langen Motorcycles.
Automotive brands returning for 2024 include Audi, Callum Designs, Everrati, Lotus, Mercedes-Benz and Morgan. Vehicles from the manufacturers will be joined by a stunning list of privately owned collector machinery of all ages, some from renowned collections in the UK, Europe and the US.
Among the major event sponsors already involved are EFG Private Bank, Hagerty Insurance, Royal Academy, Blick Rothenberg (for the seminars) and Nyetimber, supplier of English sparkling wine. For queries on event sponsorship and partnerships, please contact Geoff Love at [email protected]. For private car entries, contact David Lillywhite at [email protected]. We are currently working through the private car entries, and will confirm the line-up on the website (below) and in the next Magneto.
Last year, Concours on Savile Row was attended by more than 12,000 people, including 1500 invited VIPs. It takes place this year between May 22-23 from 10am to 8pm, with hospitality coming to a close at 4.30pm. We hope to see you there!
