The world famous classic, collector, and exotic vehicle auction house Barrett-Jackson just announced that it is bringing a massive auction event to Columbus, Ohio in 2026.
The auction will be held on June 25-27, 2026 at the Ohio Expo Center and Fairgrounds—the very same venue that hosts the annual Goodguys Summit Racing Nationals every summer, by the way.
If you’re keeping track at home, this is the very first time Barrett-Jackson has held an event like this in the Midwest part of the country and it anticipates drawing-in a massive amount of spectators and bidders from around Ohio (which includes the nearby Summit Racing retail store in Akron) and beyond.

According to the Barrett-Jackson folks, this event will feature a jaw-dropping mix of classic cars, vintage trucks, rare exotics, European imports, and a host of automobile-related memorabilia.
Suffice it to say, we’re saving our pennies now—and if you’re located near the Buckeye State, we suggest doing the same.

How great to hear! Columbus, Ohio and the State of Ohio in general have vibrant communities and private collectors who would enjoy having the Barrett.Jackson experience in their backyards.
Thanks to the BJ Exec Team for the opportunity to have a live Ohio based auction. Start throwing some $$$ in that separate account now! Haha!
