Calling All Twelves: A Salon Special Showing

Experience the Return of an Iconic Tradition: The Packard Salon – Calling All Twelves May 27–29, 2025 | Packard Proving Grounds Historic Site | Shelby Township, MI Step back into the golden age of automotive luxury as the Packard Proving Grounds brings back the glamour, prestige, and innovation of the original Packard Salons of the 1930s. The Salon was Packard’s answer to the exclusive showcases of custom-built elegance—where only the finest twelve-cylinder automobiles and bespoke coachwork were displayed for society’s elite. Now, nearly a century later, we invite owners, collectors, historians, and admirers of Packard Twelves to be part of this extraordinary revival: Calling All Twelves—a three-day experience celebrating the craftsmanship, design, and legacy of these rare and revered vehicles.

About the Packard Salon The original Packard Salons were held during the height of the Art Deco era, offering a luxury showroom-style experience in grand hotels and galleries from New York to Los Angeles. These exclusive displays were invitation-only, setting the standard for elegance and automotive sophistication. Calling All Twelves honors that tradition with a modern interpretation rooted in heritage and reverence. Public events include Wednesday’s Salon viewing hours, evening dinner, and Thursday’s presentations. Visit PackardProvingGrounds.org/2025Salon or call (586) 739-4800 for details and updates.
