Guests can hear the steady rumbling of a 1930s convertible amid the subtle hum of a modern sports car. A car lover’s dream, this annual event draws auto enthusiasts from around the world for a celebration of design and craftsmanship. Vehicles of every variety line the links, and guests sporting suits and extravagant hats navigate the displays.
