That same evening, the two Bentleys will be on display at the Charitable Dinner, which benefits the AACA Library and Research Center and the Mountaineer Autism Project. 

On Sunday, May 5, the Continental GT Convertible and the Bentayga V8 SUV will be displayed in conjunction with a featured Bentley/Rolls-Royce Class that celebrates the 100th anniversary of Bentley Motors at the concours. The weekend’s premier event will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., in and around the iconic front circle and the Virginia Lawn of The Greenbrier.
