About Biancavilla Vintage Rally
A journey through time on two and four wheels
The Biancavilla Vintage Car and Motorcycle Rally is one of the most beloved events for the community of this town in the Metropolitan City of Catania, Sicily. For an entire day, the streets and squares of the center transform into an open-air museum, where classic cars and motorcycles take center stage under the eyes of enthusiasts, families, and curious onlookers. It is an event that blends nostalgia, mechanical passion, and a sense of community, perfectly in line with the convivial spirit of Sicilian town festivals.
Historic vehicles on display
The heart of the rally is the exhibition of the vehicles: cars and motorcycles from various eras, carefully restored by their owners, are lined up and showcased for close-up admiration. Each vehicle tells a story, and the rally becomes an opportunity to exchange memories, anecdotes, and technical knowledge among collectors and enthusiasts. The participation, which has grown year after year, confirms how deeply rooted the passion for historic motoring is in the Etna region.

More than just an exhibition, the rally is a social gathering that involves all of Biancavilla. The sixth edition, held on Sunday, May 24, 2026, was a great success with the public, as documented by the local press, confirming the winning formula of an event that has now become a staple of the town's calendar.
