The Ultimate German Car Meet returns for an exciting third year in 2026!
Last year’s event saw more than 800 cars on display and 2026 promises to be even bigger. From classics to brand new models and everything in between, as long as your car was made by a German manufacturer, we’d love to see it at the show! All performance, classic, modified, rare, sports and super German cars are welcome to join the display at this unmissable event!
Car clubs, car groups and non car club/group members are all invited, too. Traders will also be in attendance on the day, selling everything from spare parts to fun souvenirs. Even if you don’t have a German car of your own, you’re sure to have a brilliant time at this family-friendly event!
Don’t forget, tickets for the show include access to the British Motor Museum, home to over 400 historic British cars. You’ll even be able to find a BMW in the collection - the 1928 BMW Dixi, presented to the Rover Group by BMW in 1994 to mark their new partnership.
Join the vehicle display! Vehicle Exhibitor tickets cost just £18 per adult; you can also book exhibitor passenger tickets at £18 per adult and £9 per child. Tickets give admission to the meet, Museum and Collections Centre. Follow the steps below to secure your Vehicle Exhibitor tickets:
