What Happened
The Bugatti Grand Tour America 2023 started from The Lodge at Blue Sky in Park City, Utah, with 20 hypercars traveling to Helper to visit the historic Conoco gas station. The convoy then proceeded to Ulum Moab, a resort set amidst 200 acres of desert, for a gourmet dinner under the stars.
On the second day, the tour faced unexpected heavy rain and snow while crossing Gateway Canyon to Aspen. Bugatti's advanced safety technologies helped drivers navigate the perilous roads safely. The day ended with a reception and dinner at a private house in Aspen.
Due to continued poor weather, the third day's plans were adjusted to include a private lunch at Clarke's Oyster Bar and a shopping session at Hermès. Participants later enjoyed driving on Aspen's mountain roads and capped off the experience by crafting custom cowboy hats at Kemo Sabe before a festive dinner at Catch restaurant.
Why this matters
The event highlights Bugatti's commitment to offering exclusive customer experiences and demonstrates the durability and safety of its hypercars in challenging conditions.
