BMW Group Hungary presents:
VIII. Balatonfüred Concours d’Elegance
The Balatonfüred Concours d’Elegance, which can also be described as a rolling museum of cars, has created a tradition of elegance and the meeting of great brands in Hungary.
Nearly 50 truly special cars and 20 motorcycles are expected to be on the Tagore boardwalk in Balatonfüred between the 12th and 14th of May 2023 to showcase rare passenger cars and racing cars at the Concours d’Elegance.
In 2016, the Balatonfüred Concours d’Elegance has been given a special status!
UNESCO has recognised and patronised the tireless work of the FIVA (Fédération Internationale des Véhicules Anciens / International Federation of Historic Vehicles), which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, in the field of technical heritage protection.
The 50th anniversary of the FIVA made the Balatonfüred event stand out among hundreds of similar events and granted us the status of UNESCO Patron.
