Once again, a grand Ferrari-themed celebration took place: the Palm Beach Cavallino Classic. The event, now in its 34th edition, offered participants and the public an extraordinary collection of four-wheeled jewels, celebrating the excellence of the Prancing Horse and honoring its rich historical heritage. It can be described as an overwhelming success, perhaps exceeding even the most optimistic expectations, which blessed this renowned Concours d’Elegance, an absolute reference point for those who carry the automaker’s supercars in their hearts.
This event, which has always been at the forefront, gained further momentum with Canossa Events’ acquisition of Cavallino Inc. in 2020, under the leadership of Chairman and CEO Luigi Orlandini, whose extraordinary organizational and management skills are well-known in the industry. He deserves credit for further enhancing the rich tradition of this American event, celebrated annually in the name of style and beauty.

The Palm Beach Cavallino Classic 2025 also featured the Tour d’Eleganza, a fascinating journey through the beautiful islands between Ft. Lauderdale and Palm Beach, allowing participants to deeply experience the magic of this Florida area that tops many tourists’ dream destinations worldwide.
A prominent role in the seductive array of events was played by the iconic Party Under the Stars at The Breakers. Here, guests could admire up close the new Ferrari F80, which was shown in New York a few days ago, continuing the legacy of limited-series supercars at the technological and performance pinnacle of the range, whose origins trace back to the 1984 GTO. Then came the F40, F50, Enzo, and LaFerrari. They paved the way for participants to discover the latest addition to this prestigious family.
“As a member of the Ferrari family, it is particularly meaningful for me to contribute to an event that not only celebrates the Prancing Horse’s heritage but also ensures its preservation for future generations. I sincerely congratulate the collectors whose extraordinary Ferraris were awarded this year, a testimony to their unwavering commitment to excellence and authenticity,” stated Enzo Mattioli Ferrari, great-nephew of Enzo Ferrari and President of Cavallino Inc.
The Concours d’Elegance featured an impressive array of dream cars. The 2025 edition of Palm Beach Cavallino Classic saw the presence of over 150 Maranello cars, 104 of which were in competition for the coveted Awards. The difficult task of choosing the winning specimens fell to a prestigious jury of experts, both American and European, who struggled to establish value rankings due to the excellence of every model on display. The parameters guiding the analysis were: authenticity, excellence, elegance, and historical significance, according to the high standards of the IAC/PFA (International Advisory Committee for the Preservation of the Ferrari Automobile).
Over 70 vehicles achieved a score of 97 out of 100, proving the extreme quality of the entries submitted for expert evaluation. At the end of the spectacular weekend, the highest honors went to a 1954 Ferrari 375 MM, a 1957 335 S, and a 1967 Dino 206 S.

The prestigious event we reported on also had a philanthropic component, in line with tradition. We are talking about “Classic & Sports Sunday”, an exhibition of historic cars from various brands, held in the splendid setting of the Mar-a-Lago Club, owned by U.S. President Donald Trump, a great enthusiast of internal combustion sports cars. Here, a charity fundraiser was held to benefit those who have been less fortunate in life. A cause that was also close to Enzo Ferrari‘s heart.
