COUNTDOWN TO AUTO E MOTO D'EPOCA 2024: PASSION RETURNS TO BOLOGNA.

The exhibition spaces are confirmed: 235,000 m2, distributed in 14 exhibition halls to be discovered through 4 themed exhibition paths accompanying fans from 45 countries around the world, to experience the history, present and future of the automotive world: the World of Classics devised for visitors to meet those who preserve, hand down to new generations and regenerate the universal motoring heritage. Among this year’s news, Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club Italia, the Italian section of the English club that was established in December 1984 and this year celebrates its 40th anniversary. Today, with 90 national and international players, JEC is the largest Jaguar sports club in the world, boasting more than 14 thousand members. Alongside the many historic clubs, 2024 will see the Moretti Enonsolo Museum for the first time, dedicated to the coachbuilders and designers from Fifties and Sixties Turin. Car Path is an unrivalled collection of vintage cars and motorcycles for sale, from rare collectables to promising Instant Classics and Youngtimers. 7,000 cars for sale in 6 exhibition halls and 4 outdoor areas totalling 125,000 square metres of exhibition space. History, culture, innovation and engineering accompany and enrich every moment of your visit. The largest classic vehicle market in Europe. Next comes the Motorbike Path: 15,000 square metres for a veritable exhibition dedicated to all fans of classic motorbikes and new models alike, a cultural heritage brought together. The previews include a rare gem: the Ducati 500 GP driven by Phil Read in 1971, the bike that defined the 'classic' architecture of the Ducati twin cylinder still in use today. In addition, a retrospective is planned, dedicated to the rich tradition of the bike manufacturers from Bologna. Last but not least the Spare Parts Path: Europe’s largest line-up of vintage spare parts - from mechanics to engine electronics and interior components. In 2024, this path has been renovated to improve the visitor experience: all car parts and automobilia are gathered in Exhibition Hall 30, motorcycle parts in Hall 29, while Hall 28 is entirely dedicated to model making. European exhibitors are growing, especially from Germany and Spain, with an increasingly significant representation also from the new Eastern European market.
