Let’s be real: Monterey Car Week is incredible!

But by Friday afternoon, can also feel like a full-contact sport!

You’ve got two options:

Option A:

Sit in gridlock. Watch the temp gauge on your dash creep toward red. Circle for parking. Hike a mile in dress shoes. Get told the restaurant can only seat two, even though you came with four. Shrug, Google the nearest Taco Bell and spend the next two hours driving three miles only to find out they ran out of Dorito Locos eight minutes before you arrived!

Option B:

Roll up to The Paddock Monterey at Bayonet Black Horse Golf Course, park on the green overlooking the Pacific, and spend your evening surrounded by amazing cars, great food, live music, and people who actually want to talk about cars (not valet tickets). No waiting lists, no mile-long hikes. Just pure car week bliss.

Why you'll love it:

• Radwood Show- A Curated Display with a 50-car tribute to the '80s and '90s retro music, fashion, and flair included.

• Wild builds like The Black Cat Jaguar, a real Bond-worthy DB5, and Spyker’s rare Dutch exotics

• Legendary guests like Peter Brock and Ed Bolian (yes, that VINwiki guy)

• VIP cabanas, hospitality tents, curated vendors, and some of the most interesting cars of the week, all without the formality, overwhelming crowds of teenage paparazzi, or the fuss!

So what’ll it be? Gridlock... or The Paddock?

Join the fun:

Bring your friends. Show your car. Or just come hang out.
