​​This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, almost every concours event in America has been canceled. Unsurprisingly, this has put a lot of strain on the organizations that plan these events.  The Concours d'Cancelation presented by Hagerty was a virtual event to benefit canceled concours (including the Hilton Head Island Concours d'Elegance) and their associated charities.  This was a professionally judged concours event, with classes for all the magnificent, classic, rare and outstanding automobiles we’ve missed seeing in 2020, plus some surprise classes to add to the fun.
