Central European vintage car rallies

Overview

In the summer of 2026 a series of historic‑vehicle gatherings took place across the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Early in July, enthusiasts attended classic‑car rallies in the Czech towns of Křenovice and Telč, where restored automobiles were displayed for the public. Later, on 1 August, the Ratibořice Castle park hosted the 25th meeting of historic car owners, featuring a swing‑and‑jazz concert, food stalls and a display of cars and motorcycles. The same day, the Slovak town of Sereď held its 22nd Ovál classic‑car rally, opening on Freedom Square and concluding with a two‑stage parade that ended at Event Hotel Kaskády. Both events included expert commentary and organization by local veteran‑car clubs and museums, drawing sizable crowds of regional automotive aficionados.
