April 17, 2025 – La Jolla, CA — Events.com, a leading global platform for event discovery and management, has acquired the La Jolla Concours d'Elegance, one of the most prestigious automotive showcases in the world. This acquisition signals a new era for the multi-day luxury event, promising enhanced infrastructure, digital engagement, and operational support.
Both Events.com and the La Jolla Historical Society — proud neighbors on Prospect Street — will continue working together to ensure the event maintains its community impact and historical integrity. The La Jolla Historical Society remains the primary charitable beneficiary, while long-time co-chairs Michael Dorvillier and Robert Kerner, along with the dedicated volunteer team, will continue leading the event.
CEO Mitch Thrower emphasized Events.com’s commitment to preserving and expanding the legacy of the Concours: “We’re honored to help power its next chapter, making it easier for attendees, sponsors, and partners to connect with this world-class event.”
The 2025 La Jolla Concours d'Elegance will be held April 25–27, with record-breaking early sales in sponsorships, hospitality suites, and tickets.
This move strengthens Events.com’s growing influence in California’s festival scene, following recent acquisitions of the Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival and the Wonderfront Music & Arts Festival.
