Every year, the Sunday in the Park, Gathering of the Marques displays an incredibly diverse collection of sports, performance, and classic cars, with literally hundreds of cars lining the track, grouped by make, model or country of origin. You'll see Shelbys and BMWs and Corvettes and Jaguars and MGs... Astons, Rolls-Royces and Lotuses... Porsches, Peugeots and Panteras... Volvos and Saabs, Minis, Mercurys, Mercedes and Mopars, Fiats and Lambos. If it's an interesting and fun car, you’re probably going to find it on display around the Lime Rock circuit.

This year’s Gathering of the Marques is scheduled for Sunday, September 4th and is generously sponsored by FCP Euro. The event is open to both Car Clubs and individuals, but to ensure that we have sufficient space around the track for all entrants, we’re asking individual participants to pre-register as outlined below so that we can accurately assign places for each group.

Car Club Reservations

Clubs wishing to reserve their own parking area should have their Club President contact Mike Distefano at the Track Office (860) 435-5000 to register and reserve space on the track. Group discounts are available for Clubs with 10 or more members, but tickets must be purchased in a single bulk order and are not available for individual purchase. Discount rates vary based on number of tickets purchased.
