Manama, Oct. 2 (BNA): Under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, the Kingdom of Bahrain will host the inaugural Royal Bahrain Concours on November 7–8 at the Royal Golf Club.

This prestigious international event will feature 90 of the world’s most exceptional collector cars ranging from timeless classics to contemporary legends alongside 300 additional vehicles from GCC-based car clubs.

The Royal Bahrain Concours provides a unique platform that celebrates automotive heritage in an exclusive royal setting, bringing together enthusiasts, collectors, and connoisseurs from around the world.

The two-day programme includes The Grand Arrival on November 7, followed by two full days of exhibition, awards presentations, and exclusive hospitality experiences.

The event will further solidify the Kingdom’s position as a regional hub for automotive events, attracting a wide community of motor enthusiasts from around the world.

With its debut, the Royal Bahrain Concours joins the ranks of prestigious international concours events in the US and Europe, positioning the Kingdom as a distinguished new destination on the global concours calendar - uniting discerning collectors, enthusiasts, and luxury lifestyle audiences from around the world.

"The Royal Bahrain Concours is set to be the number one Concours in the whole of the GCC. Bahrain is known as the home of motoring, having been the first GCC country to welcome Formula One. The Kingdom is renowned for its warm welcome and its rich culture. It is the most natural place for the motoring world to converge in November," James Brooks-Ward, Chairman, Royal Bahrain Concours.

The inaugural Concours underscores Bahrain’s growing reputation as a hub of culture, luxury, and international distinction. Already home to the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix and a rich tapestry of cultural and heritage landmarks, the Kingdom is increasingly recognised as a destination where tradition meets modernity. Visitors will discover a vibrant culinary scene, luxury resorts, and Arabian hospitality - elements that elevate Bahrain beyond the event itself into a complete luxury travel experience.

The event will take place over two days. On Friday, November 7, "Prestige Day" will showcase leading cars on the Concours stage along with luxury shopping experiences. On Saturday, November 8, "Awards Day" will highlight the announcement of all class winners and the Best of Show award. Across both days, visitors can enjoy an exhibition of 400 vehicles, shopping, and a variety of food options.

Tickets are strictly limited and available now. Guests are encouraged to secure access early to experience this landmark occasion in Bahrain’s social and cultural calendar.
