Organized by The Exotics Network (TEN), this gala combines the thrill of exotic cars with the spirit of giving, creating a memorable experience for attendees and supporting local charitable organizations.​

Event Highlights:

• Exotic Car Parade: Over 110 luxury and exotic cars take to COTA’s renowned track, offering spectators a dazzling display of automotive excellence. ​
