Both ADESA and Barrett-Jackson Auction Co. are ramping up for big annual sales this winter season. As part of the strategic alliance, ADESA Phoenix will host its 2nd annual Legendary Sales Week.

The event — scheduled for Jan. 15–22  — also coincides with the 41st  annual Barret-Jackson Collector Car Auction.

And attendees of The ADESA Phoenix Legendary Sales Week will also have the opportunity to be a VIP guest of ADESA Phoenix at the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction in Scottsdale, Ariz.

“It is an honor to once again partner with Barrett-Jackson and their annual Collector Car Event,” said Tom Caruso, president and chief executive officer of ADESA.

“I would like to personally invite everyone to join us at both ADESA Phoenix and Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale for a memorable week-long experience,” he continued.

The week-long automotive event will begin Jan. 14 with the third annual Scottsdale Road Rally in downtown Scottsdale, Ariz.

This event will be followed by Barrett-Jackson Night at the Pavilions and continues Jan. 15–22 at WestWorld of Scottsdale, officials noted.

And simultaneously, ADESA Phoenix will be kicking off their event, as well. During its Legendary Sales Week, attendees will have access to a diverse selection of inventory during the auction’s regular weekly fleet and consignment sale Wednesday, Jan. 18.
