Loyalty and the early decision to attend Classic Days help us with all the organisational planning and preparations for the Grand Meeting \u2013 we reward this with extremely good ticket prices for early purchases. <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-465721&#8243; medias=&#8221;5014,5028,5016,5017&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; single_width=&#8221;3&#8243; images_size=&#8221;four-three&#8221; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;343076&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;100893&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those who purchase their tickets early can be sure that even if certain days are sold out, they will still have secured their admission. We definitely do not want to overcrowd the Classic Days with people. Our safety concepts and our own idea of \u2018how full a cosy, stylish summer garden party should be\u2019 certainly provide us with sensible limitations. Buying your ticket early secures your visit and also ensures uncomplicated entry at the ticket offices, as there is no need to pay at the ticket office, etc.   <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-133493&#8243; medias=&#8221;5018,5019,5020,5021&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; single_width=&#8221;3&#8243; images_size=&#8221;four-three&#8221; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;772906&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;137333&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Absolutely essential from 2026 onwards: Parking tickets = entry tickets for everyday vehicles in field car parks (some of which have shuttle connections, depending on their location) and for classic car parking spaces (directly on the festival grounds) must also be secured in advance during advance sales and purchased together with your admission ticket. This will make it easier to get there and quickly enter the classic car field and the normal field car parks for everyday cars. Wherever payment processes can be eliminated, time is saved and processes become faster for everyone.  <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-133493&#8243; medias=&#8221;5022,5023,5024,5025&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; single_width=&#8221;3&#8243; images_size=&#8221;four-three&#8221; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;50&#8243; single_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;343537&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;521364&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are now expanding the large club lawns and classic car lawns right next to the historic chestnut avenue by almost 40,000 square metres for 2026 with lawns that we are having sown.
