Overview

Classic car and vintage vehicle enthusiasts held several exhibitions and meetings across Germany throughout August and September 2026.

In early August, the Oldtimerclub Tegernseer Tal hosted a multi-day event in Gmund featuring 350 youngtimer cars and 50 motorcycles, followed by a meet including approximately 100 motorcycles and various automobiles, such as a 1959 Ford Galaxie and vintage Alcyou motorcycles. In Eisenach, the Allgemeine Wartburgfahrerclub Eisenach held an international meeting showcasing over 500 vehicles. This event highlighted Wartburg models, including the 1950s Wartburg 311 and the Melkus RS 1000 sports car, while marking the 60th anniversary of the Wartburg 353.

Regional meetings continued in Walchum Südfeld, where the 10th Oldtimer Meeting hosted by the Oldtimerclub Walchum/Hasselbrock featured roughly 50 historical tractors, cars, and motorcycles, drawing participants from Emsland, Leer, and Cloppenburg. In Bocholt, the Bocholt Classic Meeting at the Aasee attracted visitors from Germany and the Netherlands to view rare classics and cult models.
