Translated to “competition of elegance” in French, the 10,000 Lakes Concours d’Elegance will feature cars, boats, and motorcycles from around the U.S. to be judged at Minnesota’s only Concours. Attendees can enjoy discovering the stories behind each museum-quality vehicle and talking to the owners. There will also be live music, cuisine by local food trucks, beer, wine, and Bloody Marys. Local artists and vendors will be onsite.
