From 30 November to 8 December 2024, the Essen Motor Show will be held at Messe Essen. Many thousands of car enthusiasts, collectors and enthusiasts from all over the world will once again pass the ticket booths and populate the German city at least once a year. One of the absolute highlights is of course the Classic & Prestige Salon, a unique exhibition that brings together enthusiasts of vintage cars, youngtimers and exclusive sports cars.
A tradition of class and craftsmanship
The Classic & Prestige Salon, an integral part of the Essen Motor Show, has a rich history as the most prestigious classic car fair in Germany. This year, more than 250 carefully selected vehicles will be presented on an impressive 17.000 square metres of space. The range ranges from iconic vintage cars to unique modern classics, all of which are testaments to craftsmanship, innovation and style.
The 2023 edition already showed the enduring popularity of 'Modern Classics'. Cars from the 90s and early 2000s, often still affordable and accessible, attracted a lot of attention. The increased interest from younger visitors and collectors underlined the appeal of these relatively young classics. The international Concours d'Élégance, a highlight of the previous editions, awarded a magnificent Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 with the title 'Best of Show'. This tradition continues this year, with another battle between the most elegant and unique cars.
What makes 2024 special?
This year, the Classic & Prestige Salon offers an even more diverse range, with cars ranging from historic racing models to prestigious sports cars from different decades. The event is not only a feast for the eyes, but also a meeting place for car enthusiasts, dealers and clubs. In the Club Forum, you can talk to like-minded people and gain valuable knowledge about restoration, maintenance and collecting.
In addition to the cars on display, the fair offers a wide range of accessories, literature, model cars and art. Internationally renowned dealers present vehicles in various price ranges, so that there is something for every type of collector to discover. Whether you are looking for a rare gem or an entry-level model to start your collection with, the Essen Motor Show has it all.
An experience not to be missed
The Essen Motor Show is much more than a car show; it is a celebration of automotive culture and history. The Classic & Prestige Salon is the heart of this event, where passion and craftsmanship come together. From the beautiful vehicles at the Concours d'Élégance to the bustling exhibition floor: every visitor will find something to enjoy. For lovers of classic and prestigious cars, this event is an absolute must.
