There are plenty of anniversaries to celebrate around Opel.

The Opel GT will be 50 years old in 2018 and the club that pays homage to it will be 40 years old. The fact that the international Opel meeting is being organized for the 30th time at the same time fits in perfectly.

400 to 500 Opels on the Hoch-Ybrig

On Sunday, May 27, 2018, the international Opel meeting will take place on the Hoch-Ybrig for the 30th time. The meeting is organized by the Opel Team Biberegg. The meeting point is the Weglosen parking area after Unteriberg.

Opel Suisse is supporting the event and will be on site with an appearance.

Around 400 to 500 vehicles are expected, from genuine classics from the Biel assembly line to classic cars from the seventies, youngtimers from the eighties and nineties and vehicles from current production.

The Opel GT Club Switzerland will be making its own guest appearance as a jubilarian. After all, the GT celebrates its 50th birthday in 2018.

A great atmosphere is guaranteed

In addition, four-time wrestling queen and Opel brand ambassador Sonia Kälin will be available for autographs, interviews and/or photos from 11 am to around 3 pm.

Admission is from 09:00, and in addition to a commemorative badge, Opel drivers will also have the opportunity to have their vehicle evaluated.
