Epoqu'Auto 2026: Shiftech looks forward to seeing you at Eurexpo Lyon

An extra hall and record figures

Organised since 1979 by volunteers from the Club des 3A (Amateurs d’Automobiles Anciennes), Epoqu’Auto is adding an extra hall this year. According to the organisers’ official press release, the new Hall 3.2 brings the total covered area to over 98,000 m², with 1,700 vehicles on display, 900 exhibitors and 220 make-specific clubs. The organisers are expecting more than 110,000 visitors over the weekend, with their sights set on the record of 109,000 visitors set in 2024.

Youngtimers, drifting and track days: making way for the new generations

The new hall is home to a youngtimers area that has doubled in size, decked out in BMW colours and featuring a retrospective celebrating 40 years of the M3/M4 line-up: twelve production cars, six racing models and a ‘Prestige’ area dedicated to the CSLs. Another major new feature is a drift village covering around 2,000 m², featuring drivers from the French championship and their cars. And for the first time in its history, the show is venturing outside the exhibition halls with an outdoor circuit, accessible from Hall 3, where drift cars will be performing several times a day.

Exhibits not to be missed

The 2CV takes centre stage with its limited editions (Spot, Charleston and the unlikely Basket, of which only two were produced). The programme also features around twenty Bugatti racing cars, from the Type 13 ‘Brescia’ to the Veyron, an exhibition entitled ‘La Dolce Vita in a Fiat’, Formula 2 on the Autodiva stage, a Shelby Village with two Cobras and a GT40, Voisin aircraft and cars, the 60th anniversary of the Berliet Stradair and five motorcycle themes, ranging from American bikes to Solex mopeds.

Three auctions

• Friday 6 November at 6.00 pm: motorbikes
• Saturday 7 November at 3 pm: youngtimers
• Sunday 8 November at 2.00 pm: classic cars
