Our story
Over 20 years of fun
What began as a small BBQ for friends has grown into a world-class event known in the automotive community as the unofficial kick off to Monterey Car Week. Gordon and Molly McCall founded Motorworks Revival in 1991 and have evolved it into the memorable, can’t-miss party it has become. This exclusive event draws more than 3,000 enthusiasts to the Monterey Jet Center for an evening of dining, drinking, dancing and more among private jets and vintage cars.
Introducing your new host
For 20 years, Hagerty has partnered with Motorworks Revival and is thrilled to be taking it on as part of their expanding suite of automotive events and experiences. Beginning in 2022, Hagerty will be the official host of this time-honored event, now known as Motorlux.
What to expect
Motorworks Revival regulars can expect the same great party they have come to know and love with a few extra special surprises. Gordon and Molly McCall will remain involved with the event as consultants and advisors and look forward to continuing the evolution of this gathering. Together the McCalls and Hagerty will continue to find innovative ways to delight the guests of Motorlux.
This year will feature farm-to-table culinary stations, featuring over 30 hand crafted dishes made with the very best ingredients the Monterey Bay area has to offer. The evening will showcase 15 top local culinary talents, including Food Network Top Chef contestants and Michelin starred chefs. There will also be an open bar that includes over 24 varieties of local Monterey wines, accompanied with a selection of wines from Bernardus, Adobe Road, Moet and Chandon and thirty specialty cocktail options.
