GCC’s Premier Car Show Set for Bahrain in November 2025

The Royal Golf Club signed an agreement to host the 2025 Royal Bahrain Concours at the Royal Golf Club. The event will be held on 7–8 November 2025 under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Bahrain and will be organised by the Bahrain Tourism and Exhibition Authority (BTEA).

The Royal Bahrain Concours 2025 will be the GCC’s premier concours and car show — an exclusive gathering “where the Gulf and the world’s most exclusive cars meet.” The event will showcase rare classics, vintage icons, and modern masterpieces, uniting car collectors, enthusiasts, and international brands in a unique cultural celebration.

Sarah Ahmed Buheji, CEO of the BTEA, 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 the 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.”

Captain Waleed Al Alawi, Chairman of the Royal Golf Club, 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."

James Brooks-Ward, Chairman of the Royal Bahrain Concours, added: “We are very fortunate to have the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Bahrain, 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 Royal Golf Club 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.
