During this nine-day event (Jan. 20-28), car enthusiasts will swarm around thousands of makes and models from the past all the way to today’s generation.

Not only will the public be able to take part of this massive event, but there will be celebrities, athletes and other famous figures that will stroll around, sell or even buy what is offered at the auction.

Craig Jackson, the Chairman and CEO of the Barrett-Jackson Auction Company, talked about how they may not necessarily know who is attending, but those who do will enjoy everything that the festivities has to offer.

“There’s a lot of celebrities that love to come here just to get educated, Jackson said. “A lot of the (base)ball players that are here for Spring Training, Barrett-Jackson really is that mecca. We don’t say who is coming ahead of time unless they have a car consigned. There is an awful lot of them, some wearing baseball hats and sunglasses walking around, you never know who’s coming to Barrett-Jackson.”

Tonight, WestWorld will host a concert featuring Grammy Award-winning rock band Foreigner, with group Night Ranger as well at 8 p.m.

After the music sets the stage for the real attractions in the cars, Barrett-Jackson kicks off the auto mania Jan. 20 at 8 a.m. on Quiktrip Family Day.
