Lugano Elegance
Lugano Elegance returns from May 16th to 18th to celebrate the beauty of vintage cars with an exhibition and parade in the heart of Lugano, where participants will be aiming for the prestigious Best of Show award.
After the first edition in 2022, the concours of elegance has become increasingly renowned, securing itself a prominent place among European classic car events. This is also thanks to the wonderful lake, which the city of Lugano overlooks, a captivating place with a cosmopolitan allure.
Kessel Classic, partner for the second consecutive year, is thrilled to attend Lugano Elegance with two cars that you can discover at the Lugano Elegance Village, where our dedicated area will be located.
For those wishing to participate with their own car, special rates are available through Kessel Classic.
