The idea

We live in times where our everyday lives are getting more convenient, and each new innovation renders the previous one obsolete. The technological discoveries, either in communication or transportation, allow for a trend of fast usage and less mindful care towards our material possessions. The retro vehicle is the antithesis of this philosophy – an irreplaceable and intricate manifestation of the craftsmanship and aesthetic values of its time. This attraction and appreciation for the past genius in the field of culture and design is evidenced by the numerous trends that return these oldschool elements. Vintage style and retro have long been in vogue, bringing gentle nostalgia and a coquettish sense of timelessness. The retro car carries not only these visual references, it is an experience. A journey through time that gives us, lovers and passionate collectors, a short escape from reality, in which we can enjoy and appreciate the boundless mastery behind cars.

Style and good taste never go out of fashion. The vision and sound of a Mustang are what the little black dress is for the ladies who ride in it. What makes our Concours D’Elegance even more memorable is the luxurious and picturesque location of the upcoming show. Among the beautiful landscapes and the tranquility of the Bulgarian nature, you will be able to enjoy the wonderful cuisine, the exciting planned events and the amenities of HYATT REGENCY PRAVETS RESORT. The participants in the event are always carefully selected with special requirements, guaranteeing the unique selection of retro cars. Visitors and the audience will be able to take advantage of the various access packages to witness an unforgettable weekend, and the excitement is guaranteed with the accompanying elements such
as retro clothing and the impressive jury panel. We look forward to seeing you with great pleasure between September 22 and 24, 2023.
