Rétromobile draws 181,500 visitors at 50th edition alongside new supercar show

Comexposium reported that the 50th anniversary edition of Rétromobile, held at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles from 28 January to 1 February 2026, attracted 181,500 visitors, up 24% on the 2025 edition, confirming its position as the world leading classic car show. The edition was placed under the patronage of the French Ministry of Culture for the first time, and the FIA Founding Members Club awarded the fair the FIA Heritage Cup 2025 for its role in preserving and promoting automotive heritage. Running in conjunction with it, the first edition of the Ultimate Supercar Garage, a new show dedicated to modern supercars, drew 63,450 visitors and, the organiser said, established itself as a European benchmark from its opening edition. Comexposium acknowledged that the combined turnout affected access and visiting conditions, and said an action plan is already being studied to handle rising attendance from next year.
