Amelia has More than Auctions and Concours
Festivals of Speed celebrates its fourth year of providing the Amelia Island weekend with an upscale festival for as many as 20,000 enthusiasts with a thirst for speed. The varied roster of show cars offers something for every niche of the automotive interest – a chance to see hundreds of Paganis, McLarens, and Ferraris bumping elbows with fin-tipped 50s muscle. But the vehicles on display aren’t so different, they all share a central design goal: going fast. The Omni’s well-manicured fairway is the perfect venue, with views of Florida’s pristine and sandy strand as a backdrop for truly beautiful automobiles.
If you’re interested in a more concentrated taste of the new and carbon-fibered, Festivals of Speed will host its Luxury Lifestyle Reception the Friday before the auto show. All 20,000 square feet of The Omni Hotel’s Grand Ballroom will be occupied by the most ostentatious exotics, any negative space will be packed with exclusive luxury displays.
