The Del Mar Concours d'Elegance is held at one of the world's most beautiful locations, the Del Mar Fairgrounds and Racetrack, on the water in Solana Beach, just north of San Diego, California.

Founded in the late 1930s by horse racing enthusiasts led by legendary crooner Bing Crosby, Del Mar has emerged as one of the great beachfront locations worldwide. The facility plays home to horse racing from July to September annually, and is also home to the San Diego County Fair, along with dozens of special events year round.

Del Mar is a perfect location for a concours d'elegance, with oceanfront beauty matched only by the automotive excellence sure to be on display this October 15-16, 2011. As Bing Crosby himself once sang, Del Mar is "where the turf meets the surf."
