Sure, there are other Barrett Jackson events. There are events in Las Vegas, Palm Beach, and Orange County, California. But, this one is special. It’s their biggest event with (in our opinion) the best cars and lasts for an entire week! This is quite possibly a car lover’s heaven on earth.
Barrett Jackson is a car auction. We are not talking about your neighbor’s minivan or the clunker you pass by on your way to work. We are talking about Cobras, Shelby Mustangs, one of a kind Corvettes, first edition Thunderbirds, classic Packard’s, and muscle cars!!
So, you are probably thinking how much fun can a car auction really be? Well, you never have to bid on a car to be part of the action. All the cars that cross the block are on display. Yes, you can walk right up and check them out. In fact, most people who come to the auction never actually bid. They just want to see tent after tent filled with some of the finest automobiles on the planet. Plus, there are plenty of vendor displays and automobile memorabilia to see. Chevy and Ford come to tout their latest offerings. You can sit in a brand new 2011 Mustang GT Convertible or learn more about their newest concept vehicles. And there is plenty of food and drink to enjoy as you see the displays.
Make sure to walk into the auction hall just to get a feel for the auction action. If you decide to bid, you will have to pre-register beforehand (see below website). If you are looking for deals, the auction’s first few days will be for you. If you have hundreds of thousands of dollars to spare, the last few days (especially Saturday) will be more to your liking.
This year’s auction takes place between January 18th and January 23rd. A general admission ticket will allow you access to the display areas and general seating in the auction hall. Ticket prices vary based on the day you want to attend.
