The morning begins promptly at 7:00 AM as dedicated Porsche collectors position their immaculate investments across the fairways. While spectator admission is entirely FREE, on-site spectator parking is available for $40 (cash only).
Gourmet coffee and breakfast items will be open for purchase from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM to fuel attendees as the morning fog clears over the display fields.
The highly competitive peer judging process runs from 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM, evaluating entries not on basic cleanliness, but on loving maintenance, proper preservation, and presentation.
Dedicated bars stocked with premium beer, wine, and spirits open from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, while a diverse lineup of local food trucks will serve lunch from 10:30 AM to 3:00 PM via contactless payment systems. The day culminates in a spectacular Awards Ceremony from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.
The Werks Reunion Monterey, a Porsche-only car show organized by the Porsche Club of America (PCA), will feature over 800 classic and rare cars, from race cars and early vintage models to street cars fresh off the assembly line.
A driving highlight for the 2026 Werks Reunion Monterey is the official featured celebration: the 50th Anniversary of the Porsche 924. Originally introduced in 1976, this milestone honors the entire revolutionary generation of front-engine, water-cooled transaxle Porsches (including the 924, 944, 968, and the V8-powered 928).
Once considered outsiders by traditionalists, these innovative, balanced-handling sportscars have skyrocketed in collector demand due to their mechanical rarity, limited production numbers, and unique placement in Zuffenhausen history.
All owners are invited to participate in this grand celebration, regardless of official PCA membership status. Enthusiasts can choose to proudly display their pride and joy within the model-specific Porsche Corral or apply to compete on the formal Porsche Judged Field.
The judged grid spans more than 15 distinct prize categories, honoring everything from matching-numbers, investment-grade vintage standouts to custom-tailored “Outlaw” modifications and pristine modern hypercars.
For younger enthusiasts, the event features the highly educational Juniors Judging, sponsored by Hagerty. Tailored for ages 6–14 and running from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM, this program nurtures the next generation of car collectors by teaching them how to evaluate vehicle condition, design significance, and historical provenance.
Juniors Judging, sponsored by Hagerty, will be available from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM. This activity is best for youth ages 6-14. Please register your child’s information in advance via the official Werks Monterey Juniors Judging portal to secure a roster spot.
Ultimately, Werks Reunion serves as a premier social hub during Monterey’s annual automotive extravaganza. The event layout proudly welcomes specialized registries and independent clubs worldwide, including the 356 Registry, 356 Club, Early 911S Registry, R Gruppe, 914 World, the Porsche Owners Club, and the Porsche Racing Club. They foster an inclusive, high-energy atmosphere focused on the shared passion for elite German engineering.
