Paradise Concours festival debuts March 11 – 13 in Naples

The inaugural Paradise Concours festival – which includes a dream car show, leading-edge artists, musicians, and culinary delicacies – is set for March 11-13 at Paradise Coast Sports Complex.
The festival will host a general Concours car show with nearly 1,000 special vehicles on PCSC’s four professional-level synthetic turf fields and a Concours d’elegance car show with approximately 150 prestigious vehicles inside the PCSC Stadium.
Visitors can enjoy a large art show of nearly 200 booths held on the field next to the PCSC stadium and an additional 15 VIP artists and art galleries inside the stadium. Various youth activities will entertain the kids on the PCSC great lawn. These festival activities will run from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Evening concerts inside PCSC Stadium are at 7:30 p.m. nightly and will be limited to 3,500 tickets per show. Greggie & The Jets, an Elton John tribute show, plays Friday, March 11.
The Motowners, a Four Tops and Temptations tribute show, performs Saturday, March 12.
Ben Allen Band, whose lead singer Ben Allen of Naples, appeared on The Voice and in concert at PCSC in 2021, headlines the Sunday, March 13 concert.
A kickoff reception with an art auction fundraiser kicks off the festival on March 9. An I-Spy car rally traveling to different destinations around Collier County for a 50/50 prize award is on March 10.
“We have a goal to bring a multitude of different sporting, cultural and public interest events to this wonderful facility – and this car show festival is the first of many for residents of Collier County to look forward to,” said Adrian Moses, PCSC general manager.
Paradise Concours is the brainchild of Thomas O’Riordan, an avid car enthusiast and part of the management team of the world-renowned Cars on 5th car show in Downtown Naples for over a decade.
Festival and concert tickets will be available online and at the gates. Go online to www.ParadiseConcours.com for participant registrations, vendor registrations, and attendee tickets. Advanced purchases are recommended, as some events are limited.
