In just a few weeks, the 34th Techno-Classica Essen will open its doors from April 3 to 7, 2024. The preview day on April 3 begins at 1:00 pm. Over 1250 exhibitors from more than 30 nations will be arriving and bringing with them unique classic cars, as well as many spare parts, accessories and automobilia.
Fireworks of anniversaries
A look at the anniversary calendar provides an initial glimpse of the highlights of Techno-Classica 2024. Opel and the AvD (Automobile Club of Germany) are celebrating 125 years of history, and Rolls-Royce has been around for 120 years - just as long as the rare Bismarck motorcycles.
Manufacturers, clubs and interest groups will be celebrating the birthdays of Bugatti and Morgan (both 115 years), Scuderia Ferrari (95 years), the BMW 315 as the brand's first sports roadster and the Citroёn Traction Avant "gangster saloon" (both 90 years) and the Morris Mini (65 years) with exciting presentations.
At the center of these anniversaries are also two German icons that have written automotive history in very different ways: the VW Golf and the Porsche Turbo. Both rolled onto the roads for the first time in 1974 and will therefore be looking back on half a century in 2024.
In addition to the Grugahalle, all ten exhibition halls and four extensive outdoor areas with a total of around 120,000 square meters of exhibition space are available - the equivalent of around 17 soccer pitches.
