WelcomeCONCORSO D’ELEGANZA 2024

We have great pleasure in giving you our warmest welcome to the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este 2024. A weekend exuberant with elegance, prestige and automobile passion awaits us on the shores of magical Lake Como. As hosts, BMW Group Classic and the Grand Hotel Villa d’Este are proud to have the privilege of presenting this exceptional event to you once again.

The weekend is already heralded on Thursday 23 May with the traditional Prelude Tour. You can therefore look forward to the arrival of the Historic Cars at the harbour of Cernobbio in the run-up to the main event.

This year, the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este is showcasing eight fascinating award classes for Historic Cars which represent the pinnacle of automobile history. Right from the beginning of the performance era to the speedster supercars of the video generation – the fascination of mobility can be experienced here live in all its many facets.

Alongside the classic contests, there will also be a multifaceted supporting programme for the entire family. The Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este Public Day – Il Festival on 26th May invites visitors to experience the unique parade of Historic Cars in the fabulous garden of Villa Erba and enjoy the enchanting mix of culture, music and automotive fascination. The popular club and community event “Amici & Automobili – Wheels & Weisswürscht” will once again take place in the grounds of Villa Erba as a celebration of the shared passion for classic motor cars.

The Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este is not simply a showground for automobile glamour. It also hosts encounters and exchanges for connoisseurs of classic cars from all over the world. We are looking forward to experiencing this unforgettable weekend together with you as we jointly celebrate the beauty and heritage of these exclusive automobiles. Let’s celebrate the “magic of mobility”.
