The two-day event will feature two distinct fields of antique, classic and collector vehicles.

Spectators will see a different display each day, including special showcases marking two iconic milestones: the 100th anniversary of Mercedes-Benz and the 100th anniversary of Ducati.

The judged show brings together design, engineering, history and craftsmanship from manufacturers across the globe, according to organizers.
