Concours at Wynn Las Vegas has announced a mix of new-car presentations and a GT1-era racing display for its October 30–November 1, 2026 weekend. The organizer’s October 15 lineup announcement sets out planned appearances, not completed launches or independently confirmed vehicle specifications.

World debuts and North American premieres are different

Wynn says Hennessey will introduce the Blackbird globally, while CAVËN Atelier will present its first automobile. Shelby American is scheduled to unveil a new vehicle alongside two historic Super Snakes. Apollo’s EVO appearance is described as a North American premiere rather than a world debut.

Pagani is also scheduled to make a global debut and gather the Huayra 70 trilogy in one presentation. The release does not provide prices, production specifications or delivery dates for the unnamed premieres. A place on an event programme should not be read as confirmation that a car is available to buy.

GT1 joins the judged concours programme

The announcement lists 12 judged classes and two specialty classes. Its GT1 specialty display will look back at 1990s endurance racing. The historic cars cited to explain that era are context; the release does not supply a complete entry list guaranteeing each example will attend.

The main concours is Saturday, October 31

The organizer’s current schedule, checked October 19, marks Night Shift GT and the Friday welcome reception sold out. It still links ticket sales for the main concours. The Saturday winners’ reception is invitation-only; it is not another general-admission session.

Auction previews are listed for October 30 from 9 a.m.–5 p.m. and October 31 from 9 a.m.–2:30 p.m. Sunday’s procession offers people along the Strip a chance to see participating cars, but it is separate from admission to the concours grounds.

Check the official programme and the terms of the particular ticket before making plans. A hotel package, a concours ticket and access to a private reception are not interchangeable, and schedules or availability can change.
