The Royal Golf Club (RGC) yesterday signed an agreement to host the 2025 Royal Bahrain Concours.
The event, being held on November 7-8 under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, will be organised by the Bahrain Tourism and Exhibition Authority (BTEA).
The GCC’s premier concours, an exclusive gathering “where the Gulf and the world’s most exclusive cars meet”, will showcase rare classics, vintage icons and modern masterpieces, uniting car collectors, enthusiasts and international brands in a unique cultural celebration.
BTEA chief executive Sara Buhiji said: “Hosting this world-class event reflects Bahrain’s strength as a destination for entertainment and sports tourism. With its rich history in motorsport, anchored by Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), the kingdom has long been at the heart of the region’s automotive scene. This high-profile event highlights our readiness to host leading international events and reinforces Bahrain’s reputation as a place where luxury and unforgettable experiences come together.”
RGC chairman Captain Waleed Al Alawi said: “We are thrilled to partner with the Concours of Elegance to bring this world-class event to Bahrain. This collaboration perfectly aligns with our mission to host the finest international events and to promote Bahrain as a leading destination for luxury and sport. We look forward to welcoming the global classic car community to the Royal Golf Club for a truly unforgettable experience.”
Royal Bahrain Concours chairman James Brooks-Ward said: “We are very fortunate to have the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, and delighted to be bringing this Concours to the world’s attention. After Bahrain became the first nation in the GCC to host a major Formula 1 race, it will once again lead the way by being the first to launch a Motoring Week, led by the Royal Bahrain Concours.”
Renowned for its exceptional facilities, the RGC will provide an elegant backdrop for the event, reflecting both Bahrain’s cultural prestige and its growing reputation as a destination for luxury tourism and international showcases.
The 2025 Royal Bahrain Concours promises an unforgettable celebration of car design, heritage and innovation, cementing Bahrain’s role as the meeting point for the region and the world’s most exclusive cars.
