Broad Arrow announces new high-end collector car auction at Zoute Grand Prix Car Week, strengthening European market expansion.
Broad Arrow Auctions, a Hagerty (NYSE: HGTY) company, has announced its next strategic move in Europe: the Zoute Concours Auction, to be held during the Zoute Grand Prix Car Week from October 8–12, 2025, in Knokke-Heist, Belgium. The single-day auction will take place on Friday, October 10, at the scenic Approach Golf, a prime location just steps from the Belgian coast.
The new auction will present an exclusive selection of approximately 70 collector cars, spanning a variety of eras, marques, and values. It marks the next step in Broad Arrow’s rapid European expansion following the company’s highly successful debut at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, where total sales reached €31.2 million, including a record-setting 1948 Ferrari 166 Spyder Corsa that sold for €7.54 million.
“We are thrilled to announce the Zoute Concours Auction as our newest sale date just days after a fantastic European debut,” said Karsten Le Blanc, Head of Broad Arrow’s EMEA Region & Broad Arrow Capital. “This partnership with Zoute Grand Prix brings our collector car experience to one of Europe’s most beloved motoring events.”
Gregory Tuytens, Head of Consignments in Belgium and the Netherlands, highlighted the significance of the partnership: “Zoute is a festival that blends world-class automobiles, luxury lifestyle, and genuine collector passion. It’s the perfect platform to showcase some of the most exceptional vehicles on the market today.”
The Zoute Grand Prix Car Week is considered a highlight of the European automotive calendar, blending high-end cars with avant-garde art and lifestyle experiences. The weekend also includes the return of the Zoute Concours d’Élégance by ING Private Banking on October 11–12, reinforcing the weekend’s emphasis on automotive excellence.
Koen Van Hout, CEO of the Zoute Grand Prix, praised the new collaboration: “Partnering with Broad Arrow strengthens the international character of our event and reflects our mutual drive to push boundaries in the collector car world.”
Early consignments for the Zoute Concours Auction will be revealed in the coming weeks. Interested collectors are encouraged to contact Broad Arrow’s team of specialists for more information and consignment opportunities.
