It’s less than four weeks until the 2021 Arizona Auction Week — well, sort of, anyway.
As it’s still 2020 — and everyone is still dealing with COVID-19 — the auction schedule continues to shift. It appears that we’ll have a two-part Arizona Auction Week in 2021, with some auction houses keeping their January dates — albeit with mostly online bidding — while others are shifting to late March.
Barrett-Jackson and Russo and Steele are moving to March dates. RM Sotheby’s and Bonhams plan to be in Arizona in January, while Gooding & Company plans an online-only auction during the traditional Arizona Auction Week dates.
Worldwide Auctioneers moved their 2021 Scottsdale auction to Auburn, Indiana.
Here are all of the current details:
Russo and Steele Postpones to March
Russo and Steele has postponed their RS Collector Automobile Invitational to March 27, 2021.
The auction was originally scheduled for January 23, 2021.
The Invitational will happen at Russo and Steele headquarters at 7722 East Gray Road, Scottsdale, AZ 85260. A selected group of bidders — applications are available at Russo and Steele’s website — will get a private preview session, a full dinner service and then the company’s signature “Auction in the Round.”

RM Sotheby’s January 22, 2021 Arizona Auction will be limited to registered bidders, but online bidding is also welcome.
