Le Mans Classic is an event that a true car enthusiast must visit once in a lifetime. And if on top of that the occasion is the centennial celebration of the world's most famous endurance race, then it becomes something not to be missed.
At Le Mans Classic paddocks and pits are open to experience the spirit that has always defined endurance racing
The entertainment on the track is guaranteed by the cars that participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans from 1923 to 1981, with the addition of historic Group C cars from the late 1980s and Endurance Racing Legends.

What lingers in the soul, however, is the atmosphere and energy that the paddock conveys. Walking past Bugatti Type 35s or Alfa Romeo 8C 2300s inches away, watching the engine start, breathing in those smells that make us love cars and motorsport so much. Street markets with all sorts of items that would drive any petrolhead crazy, unfindable models or official clothing from historic Scuderie.

The area reserved for clubs is impressive, where more than 8,000 cars gather and give life to a veritable Woodstock of motoring in which enthusiasts from all over the world and of all ages share their passion.
