The Opening Night Party is a 21+ event.
The auction generally starts at 10:00am local time and will run until all the vehicles for that day have crossed the auction block. The venue will then remain open for one hour after the final vehicle has crossed the auction block.
Lots will go across the block in numerical order. When the docket goes live prior to the auction you will be able to see what day the vehicle is going to be on the auction block. Every morning during the auction, run sheets are available throughout the site that will allow for an estimated time to be determined that the vehicle will be auctioned that day.
Vehicles are placed onsite considering a number of factors and this will not always be based on the Lot number. You can refer to the docket listing for the location of each vehicle. You may also download the Barrett-Jackson Auction app for an interactive map showing the location of each vehicle
You will receive an email confirmation of the purchase, and all winning Lots will be in your customer profile.
Barrett-Jackson's hospitality partner On Location, offers premium packages for each event that can be purchased here.
