Old Time Show — Vintage Car and Motorcycle Swap Meet
The grand vintage motors fair at Fiera di Forlì
About Old Time Show
A Weekend Dedicated to Vintage Motors
The Old Time Show is one of the most anticipated historic motoring events in Emilia-Romagna. Hosted in the spacious halls of Fiera di Forlì, on Via Punta di Ferro, the event is a large swap meet for vintage cars and motorcycles that attracts enthusiasts, collectors, and federated clubs from across the peninsula each year. Organized by Romagna Fiere in collaboration with CRAME (Club Romagnolo Auto Moto d'Epoca) and the Sport Club Il Velocifero, with the patronage of ASI, it has become a nationally recognized benchmark for lovers of historic vehicles.
What to See at the Fair
Among the stands, you'll find classic cars, youngtimers, and unique pieces from historic registries and private collections, alongside a rich swap meet for spare parts, accessories, and specialized literature. It's the ideal opportunity to find that elusive part, chat with fellow enthusiasts, or simply admire models that have made automotive and motorcycle history.
Themed Exhibitions and Celebrations
Each edition features special exhibitions that make the Old Time Show much more than just a fair. Exhibitions dedicated to major brands, speed legends, and automotive company anniversaries transform the halls into a true temporary museum, where the passion for motors meets the culture and memory of 20th-century Italy.
Shows and Entertainment
- Show areas with live performances and acrobatic shows
- Theatrical installations and motor-themed animations
- Club gatherings and events for members
- Spaces for families and the curious, not just for industry professionals

For the city and the entire Emilia-Romagna region, it represents a weekend of shared passion, where the roar of historic engines intertwines with the culture of collecting and typical Romagnola hospitality.
