After the premiere in April 2025 had to be canceled due to the Pope's funeral, the date for the first Anantara Concorso Roma has now been announced: it will take place in the Italian capital from 16 to 19 April 2026.
Planning for 2026 underway
Meanwhile, planning for next year is already in full swing - the new date has been confirmed and the venues have also been finalized. The vision remains unchanged: a stylish tribute to the Italian way of life, inviting collectors worldwide to present an exceptional selection of pure Italian automotive art right in the heart of the eternal city. The classic cars will be exhibited at various famous locations in the city, including in front of the Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel. UBS continues to support the event as Presenting Partner and almost all other sponsors have confirmed their participation again for 2026, as have the majority of confirmed collectors.
Exit and beauty contest
A special highlight of the weekend is the Giro d'Anantara - an elegant drive in which the participating classic cars leave the city and are taken along picturesque country roads to Frascati. There, invited guests will enjoy an exclusive lunch in a private setting - characterized by first-class cuisine, relaxed conversation and impressive scenery.
Finally, the festive highlight will be the award ceremony for the "Best in Show" - honoring the most outstanding models of the event. Each car represents the special interplay of engineering, craftsmanship and design sophistication that has shaped Italian automotive history to this day. The Anantara Concorso Roma is so much more than a classic automobile event - it is a stylish tribute to Italian joie de vivre, design culture and technical excellence.
The vehicles are judged in various categories by a renowned jury according to aesthetic, technical and historical criteria. The most outstanding models will be honored on Sunday.
The Anantara Concorso Roma thus combines automotive passion with cultural aspirations, creating an experience that reflects the fascination of Italy in all its facets.
