Vicenza Classic Car Show 2026: Classic and Sports Cars Take the Spotlight

The spring event dedicated to historic motoring takes place once again at the Fiera di Vicenza, bringing legendary models, new highlights and moments of exchange for enthusiasts and collectors.

Vicenza is getting ready to celebrate automotive heritage once more. Riding the wave of enthusiasm generated by previous editions, Vicenza Classic Car Show confirms its role as the benchmark event of the spring season for classic and sports cars. From Friday 27 to Sunday 29 March 2026, the halls of the Fiera di Vicenza, managed by Italian Exhibition Group, will transform into an exceptional stage dedicated to automotive culture in all its forms.

The exhibition is designed as a journey through the evolution of the automobile: from timeless icons that shaped 1950s and 1960s design to the most aggressive and captivating supercars of more recent decades. A curated path celebrating ingenuity, aesthetics and performance, capable of engaging a broad audience – from seasoned collectors to curious newcomers taking their first steps into the world of historic motoring.

Iconic manufacturers and museums will present carefully crafted displays that tell the story of design and technology through rare and significant vehicles that defined entire generations of car lovers. From Youngtimers to “Instant Classics”, the show offers a thoughtful look at the models most sought after by new collectors and those destined to become tomorrow’s icons. Growing space will also be dedicated to spare parts and accessories, with a refined selection of original components, technical manuals and specialised publications – a true treasure trove for anyone working on a restoration project. Scale models and motoring literature round out the offer, catering to collectors of memorabilia and enthusiasts of automotive history.

Federations take centre stage

Safeguarding Italy’s automotive heritage remains a core theme of the event, highlighted by the presence of leading sector federations. ACI Storico – AC Vicenza will expand its presence with a larger stand, hosting talks and discussions throughout the weekend on key topics in the historic vehicle world. Likewise, the ASI Automotoclub Storico Italiano will take part in grand style through its Triveneto-area clubs, with an even more extensive exhibition space celebrating the mechanical history of the region. A rich programme of meetings and debates is currently being finalised.

A meeting point for the community

Vicenza Classic Car Show is not just about display, but also about connection. Thanks to the active participation of historic clubs and registers, visitors will have the opportunity to engage directly with experts, seeking advice on restorations, market evaluations, and certification or registration procedures.

Dynamic moments will also play a key role: in collaboration with clubs and specialist media, the organisers are preparing a programme of rallies and gatherings designed to make the weekend an immersive, community-driven experience.

Among the first confirmed highlights is the return of the much-anticipated Youngclassic Rally on Saturday 28 March, promoted by ACI Editore. The event will feature 50 of the most significant cars produced between the 1970s and the early 2000s. The big novelty for 2026 is an exclusive road tour: a spin-off event departing on Saturday morning from ACI Editore’s headquarters at La Pista di Lainate (near Milan), arriving at the Fiera di Vicenza and creating a rolling, on-the-road preview of the show itself.
