Every year, car enthusiasts all over the country flock to the annual Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale car auction in Arizona to get an up-close look at hundreds of vintage, unique and brand-new car models that are on display and for sale.
However, some gearheads love attending Barrett-Jackson to get a look at their favorite celebrities’ cars. Years past have included a restored 1962 Ford Thunderbird owned by Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Sammy Hagar, a 1970 Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda owned by Nicolas Cage and even Lucille Ball’s custom-built golf cart.
The Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2026 auction will take place Jan. 17-25 with the Rock the Block concert kicking things off on Friday, Jan. 16, with performances by Cole Swindell and Chase Rice.
