VIP

Experience life as a VIP as you immerse yourself in the high-octane thrills of our inaugural Monterey Motorsports Festival on Saturday, Aug. 17.

This all-day event (11 a.m.-10 p.m.) takes place at the expansive Monterey Fair & Events Center. Our VIP Lounge Experience unlocks access to an impressive display of cars — classic, electric, hyper, super, off-road and more — as well as exclusive workshops, demos, Q&A sessions, and driving simulators!

Take your experience to the next level, with all the benefits of General Admission and MMF After Dark, plus exclusive perks. Enjoy a hosted bar (credit card only) that serves up all your favorites beginning at 11 a.m., with tastings offered until 8 p.m. You’ll also have access to internationally themed food stations throughout the VIP venue, brought to you by Coastal Roots Hospitality & Catering (home to restaurants Rio Grill in Carmel, Tarpy’s and Montrio in Monterey). With a private lounge and patio area offering expansive views of the main stage and the grounds, as well as private restrooms and simulators, you’ll feel like a true VIP.

Wine Flights VIP, a touring and travel resource company that creates custom experiences in California vineyards, will host a VIP experience and sponsor the music (pianist Michael Martinez, and singer/pianist Arthur Wu.)

Other companies represented in the VIP Lounge include: 

• Sanctuary Vacation Rentals (offering a raffle to win a stay-cation)
• Sullivan Rutherford Estate Napa (wine and chocolates from 2-4 p.m.)
• Nematic Gallery & Daisy Rose Gallery (sponsoring performances from renowned musician Mermans “Mofaya” Mosengo, along with multimedia sculptor and photographer Blakeney Sanford, along with live appearances from NeoSutras, combining performance art, yoga, mixed media art, a full immersive VR experience, meditation, and web3 technology).
