Anantara Hotels & Resorts will launch the Anantara Concorso Roma for Historic Italian cars from 24 to 27 April 2025.
Iconic Italian cars
This three-day homage to Italian automotive craftsmanship and heritage will bring together fifty of the rarest historic Italian automobiles, many from private collections. The event will feature only Italian cars including iconic names as Alfa Romeo, Bugatti, Ferrari, Lancia, Lamborghini, Maserati and Pagani. The cars will be presented to a panel of international judges assembled by concours grandee Adolfo Orsi Jr. and celebrated Concours director, Jeremy Jackson-Sytner.
In multiple city locations
Presented by UBS, the event will pay tribute to Rome and its residents through its reverence of all things Made in Italy, including Italian cuisine, craftmanship, design, and luxury lifestyle, with the line-up of the very best Italian automotive masterpieces showcased to a global stage and displayed across multiple iconic locations in the city.
Anantara Palazzo Naiadi as a backdrop
Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel on the Piazza della Repubblica in the heart of the city will be a breathtaking backdrop to the inaugural Anantara Concorso Roma. This 19th century marble palace built over the ruins of the famous Diocletian Thermal Baths dating from 298 A.D: and overlooking the Fountain of the Naiads, has a semi-circular design that is reminiscent of an amphitheatre and combines with a magnificent neoclassical portico.
“A prestigious concours event for the capital”
“Rome is enjoying a Renaissance, making it the perfect moment for Anantara to shift gears and launch a prestigious concours event for the capital,” said William Heinecke, Founder and Chairman of Minor International, Anantara’s parent company, and a long-time historic car enthusiast. "UBS is proud to be the official sponsor of the inaugural Anantara Concorso Roma, the latest addition to our exclusive program of classic car events,” said Benjamin Cavalli, Head of Global Wealth Management Strategic Clients at UBS.
