Monterey Car Week Events For 2019

by Wallace Wyss –

Pebble Beach was kind enough to send us their CALENDAR AT-A-GLANCE which includes some other events taking place on the Monterey Peninsula as well. The notes in parenthesis are added by myself to explain the nature of the event. It takes a lot of planning to go to Car Week, I suggest number 1 on your agenda is finding a hotel, even if its as far as San Jose.

Monterey Car Week gets busier every year. This year it is the week of Monday August 12 through Sunday August 18.

We will provide more information as we get closer to Monterey Car Week.
