Kirkland Concours d'Elegance
Snuggled up to the shores of Lake Washington with the majestic Olympic Mountain range as a backdrop, the Kirkland Concours d'Elegance is hosted in early September on the lavish grounds of Carillon Point, home of the luxurious Woodmark Hotel, Yacht Club & Spa. As a celebration of the classic art of vintage automobile, motorcycle, and wooden boat design the Kirkland Concours is patterned after early twentieth century Concours held in Europe, which were truly "Contests of Elegance."
