Concorso d'Eleganza di Villa d'Este, here are the dates 2026

The Concorso d'Eleganza of Villa d'Este is back again in 2026. Bmw has made this year's dates official, which will be from 15 to 17 May. There will be six different categories in the spotlight: starting with the extravagantly styled cars of the 1950s and also convertibles, but also the legendary Ferraris of the Endurance and unrestored historic cars, through to grand tourers from the second half of the 1960s and, finally, supercars. About 50 cars will compete for the traditional BMW Trophy, but entries are still open. There will also be specific events: Bmw Group Classic has already confirmed the traditional appointment with the latest concept cars, while always on the shores of Lake Como, Bmw will celebrate a series of anniversaries that fall in 2026: the 90th of the BMW 328, the 40th of the BMW M3, the 50th of the BMW 6 Series and the 60th of the 02 Series. Among the initiatives during the weekend there will be the traditional parade of the competing cars and the awarding of the winner who will receive a special chronograph. The Amici & Automobili - Wheels & Weisswurscht format will be repeated this year as well as, for the second year in a row, the organisation of an auction by the American Broad Arrow Auctions, which will feature models of great historical value such as the 1990 Ferrari F40, the 1929 Bugatti Type 43 Roadster with bodywork by Eugene Matthys, as well as an extremely rare 1999 Honda NSX Type S.
