Bologna celebra la Motor Valley al 40° Salone Auto e Moto d’Epoca

Interni del Salone Auto e Moto d'Epoca.

From October 23 to 26, Bologna becomes the world capital of classic cars and motorcycles: for the first time, the Salone Auto e Moto d’Epoca arrives at BolognaFiere, bringing with it the legend of the Emilia-Romagna Motor Valley. A unique showcase of excellence, where history, technology, and Italian design meet on a four-day runway.

In Pavilion 32, covering 1,742 sqm, 25 cars and 10 motorcycles that made history will be on display: from the Ferrari F40 to the legendary Lamborghini Miura, from elegant vintage Maserati Quattroporte to Pagani Huayra and Zonda C12. Among the motorcycles, eight iconic Ducati models, from the historic 60 and Scrambler 450 to the modern Panigale V4 S, will tell the story of decades of ingenuity and two-wheel passion.

The regional motorsport legends are also represented: the Scuderia Tricolore from Reggio Emilia will showcase the 1985 Ferrari GTS Turbo, while the “Centro Internazionale Guida Sicura – Scuderia de Adamich” will exhibit an Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione. The four Motor Valley racetracks – Imola, Modena, Varano de’ Melegari, and Misano – will help turn the pavilion into a true motorshow spectacle.

Additionally, visitors can immerse themselves in the world of the Motor Valley thanks to the new institutional video, which in just over a minute captures the art, engineering, and creativity behind the brands that shaped the history of Italian automotive excellence.

With over 19,000 visitors expected from more than 40 countries, the Classic Car and Motorcycle Show promises to be the highlight event of the year, crowning Bologna as the new capital of historic cars and motorcycles and confirming the Motor Valley as the only district in the world where passion, innovation, and style merge.
