From 19 Sep to 21 Sep 2025

On the sublime and famous Sword beach of Ouistreham Riva-Bella, the Normandy Beach Race offers a unique show to relive the atmosphere of the mechanical meetings of the 40s and 50s.

A unique vintage event on a historic beach

The Normandy Beach Race is an original and spectacular event!

There are demonstrations over 200 metres from a standing start where classic vehicles compete. American and European cars and motorbikes, pre-1947, make their engines roar and reveal their authentic charms.

Enthusiasts have created this unusual gathering with beach runs that can be seen rather far from our lands. They can usually be found in the United States, England and Denmark.

To date, there has been no official announcement regarding a date in 2026.
