Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction
Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction takes place Jan 23 - 31, 2027 in Scottsdale, United States. The dress code is Casual with a hat and sunscreen for the daytime tents, plus a warm layer for cold desert evenings. Typical cost ranges from 150 to 1500 EUR per person.
The largest collector-car auction week in the world, running roughly eight days at WestWorld of Scottsdale as thousands of vehicles cross the block under television lights. The range runs from restomod muscle cars to charity one-offs sold for seven figures. It is as much a social fixture of the American collector calendar as a sale, and spectating is deliberately cheap.

Insider tip
Come early in the week when tickets are cheapest and every car is already staged in the tents - Saturday is when the headline lots cross the block, but the site is packed and the overflow parking is a long walk out.
