At the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum, you can see, hear and smell history come to life through these magnificent machines. Our Demo Day programs are held on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of most months. You can see the full schedule below.
In the event of inclement weather, Demo Day will be held indoors. Please be sure to check our homepage for any last minute changes or weather updates.

Demo Day events are included with any General Admission tickets.
Our collection contains some of the rarest and most sought after automobiles in the world. Because of that fact (and our extraordinarily strict insurance requirements), only authorized agents of the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum are allowed to operate/occupy vehicles in our collection.
We certainly do! You never know what might show up at one of our Demo Day events. Check our website news section and social media for all the latest updates.
We hope you do! Demo Day events are all about learning the unique history and legacy of the cars in our collection and the place they held in history.
