European classic car rallies August 2026

In mid‑July 2026, organizers announced the Tatra Veteran Car Rally in Slovakia, set for 14‑16 August. The event will showcase historic vehicles, with the iconic Tatra 87 highlighted as its poster image, and will include cultural excursions alongside the motor‑sport programme.

Later in July, additional historic‑vehicle rallies were publicised for the same month. The Automobilclub von Deutschland (AvD) and Auriga Historic will run the AvD‑Histo‑Tour from 5‑7 August, moving from the Nürburgring’s Nordschleife to Spa‑Francorchamps and finishing in Maastricht, featuring a diverse entry list of classic cars. Concurrently, the 23rd Sachsen Classic Rallye is scheduled for 14‑15 August, shortened to two days and open to younger teams with vehicles up to model year 2006, traversing the scenic routes of Saxony and Bohemia.

Together, these announcements illustrate a coordinated series of classic‑car rallies across Central and Western Europe in August 2026, drawing enthusiasts, historic vehicle owners, and sponsors to celebrate automotive heritage on mountain roads, historic circuits, and regional landscapes.
