Detroit has always understood the relationship between automobiles and art. This Saturday, that relationship takes center stage as Ferraris on the Runway makes its Detroit debut, bringing together exotic automobiles, fashion, private aviation, music and philanthropy for what promises to be an unforgettable evening.

On Saturday, September 26, 2026, from 4:00 to 9:00 p.m., Pentastar Aviation at Oakland County Airport will provide the setting for an event that began in Chicago as an intimate gathering of automotive enthusiasts and has grown to welcome more than 550 guests each year.

But Ferraris on the Runway has always been about more than beautiful cars.

At the heart of the evening is a commitment to giving back. Through the generosity of guests, sponsors and partners, the event has helped raise and donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to support children with medical needs. The Detroit event will continue that tradition, with proceeds benefiting Make A Wish Michigan and Corporate Angel Network.

The Perfect City

It is difficult to imagine a more appropriate city for an event like this than Detroit.

The automobile is part of the history and identity of this city. Bringing Ferraris on the Runway to Detroit creates a natural connection between our automotive heritage and the worlds of fashion, aviation, business and culture.

The setting itself should be spectacular. Exotic automobiles will share the space with private aircraft, creating an atmosphere that celebrates design, craftsmanship and innovation.

Guests can expect to see vehicles from Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Porsche, McLaren and other celebrated automotive brands. Private aircraft will also be on display, along with helicopter tours for guests looking to experience the evening from an entirely different perspective.

Fashion Takes the Runway

ashion will also play a major role in the evening.

Wool & Linen will present its 2026 and 2027 collections on the runway, bringing fashion into an environment surrounded by some of the world’s most recognizable automobiles.

Fashion and automobiles have more in common than we sometimes realize. Both can be expressions of personality and individual style. Both depend on creativity, craftsmanship and attention to detail. At their best, they become more than something we wear or drive. They become part of how we express ourselves.

Ferraris on the Runway brings those worlds together.

Throughout the evening, guests will enjoy cocktails, music, cigars and exceptional hospitality, along with performances from musicians and DJs.

There will also be plenty of opportunity to connect. Detroit business leaders, athletes, automotive enthusiasts, entrepreneurs and community supporters will gather in an environment designed to encourage conversation, relationships and a shared appreciation for a great experience.

Guests are encouraged to dress to impress, bring friends and colleagues and enjoy everything the evening has to offer. Those interested in displaying a special vehicle are also encouraged to participate.

More Than an Event

For all the attention the cars, aircraft and fashion will receive, the most important part of Ferraris on the Runway is its purpose.

Behind the beautiful cars and glamorous setting is an effort to help children and families facing serious medical challenges.

That is what gives the evening meaning.

Detroit knows cars. Detroit knows fashion. Detroit knows how to have a great time. But this city also understands what it means to come together for a cause that matters.

This Saturday, all of those things will come together in one place.

For its first year in Detroit, Ferraris on the Runway will bring an exciting new experience to the city while continuing a tradition of giving that began years ago in Chicago.

There will be incredible cars. There will be fashion. There will be private aircraft, music, cocktails and some of Detroit’s most interesting people.

But at the end of the evening, the reason everyone came together will matter most.

Helping children.

That sounds like beautiful people doing beautiful things.
