Imola Mostra Scambio CRAME 2027 at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari

The Imola Mostra Scambio is the great autumn swap meet of the Italian classic scene, organised by CRAME (Club Romagnolo Auto e Moto d'Epoca) at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari. The 2027 event would be the 49th edition. CRAME has not yet published the 2027 dates, and a September weekend is expected based on previous years, so check the organiser's site before you travel.

The format is simple and has proved enduring. More than 2,000 exhibitors spread out across the track and the paddock of the circuit, offering spare parts, accessories, memorabilia and vintage vehicles. The scope covers classic cars, motorcycles and bicycles, so a single walk around the circuit can take you from small mechanical parts and original manuals to a complete restoration project. Il Resto del Carlino reported that the 2026 edition reached its target of around 30,000 total visitors over the three days.

Because the market stretches along the circuit itself, distances are considerable. In 2026 a free shuttle train ran along the route for visitors, and the venue listed several main entrances: Viale Dante, the Via Malsicura tunnel, Variante Alta and Rivazza. Choosing the right gate for the part of the market you want to see can save a lot of walking.

In 2026 (48th edition, 11-13 September) the market opened on Friday from 11:00 to 18:00, on Saturday from 08:00 to 18:00 and on Sunday from 08:00 to 17:00, so dedicated parts hunters could be on site from early morning at the weekend.

The event's roots go back to 1977, when 14 young enthusiasts organised the first Mostra Scambio in Tresigallo. Almost 50 years later it fills one of Italy's best-known racing circuits, and in 2026 CRAME president Luciano Marzocchi told Il Resto del Carlino that 150 of the 2,000 exhibitors came from abroad, with visitors arriving from England, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Spain, the Netherlands and Belgium. For collectors restoring a car or hunting a specific part, it remains one of the essential dates of the year.
