Dates change for Milwaukee Concours

The Milwaukee Concours d'Elegance is moving to an earlier date in 2017 to avoid conflicts with other shows. The concours is set for the first weekend of August, a few weeks earlier than in the previous 12 years. The two-day event opens on Saturday, Aug. 5, with Show & Glow by the Lake, an open car show, as well as a motor tour and the annual Style & Speed Social. The Concours d'Elegance follows on Sunday, Aug. 6.

"We've been in direct conflict with Geneva (Illinois) Concours only 90 miles to the south," said Milwaukee Concours Co-Chair Carrol Jensen. "The Pebble Beach Concours is the third weekend of August, and it's a long drive to Milwaukee from California."
