Distinctive aspects of this particular tour set Grand Basel apart from other acclaimed automotive shows. Grand Basel is the first and only show in the world to exhibit automobiles in an artistic and architectural light. The show’s style resembles that of modern-day museums. The overall aesthetic comprises contemporary architecture. The most exceptional of the automobiles will be displayed in “frames” to honor them as the works of art that they truly are. The format allows guests to have a deeper appreciation of all the potential that a car can contain.
