Swiss Classic British Car Meeting
The Swiss Classic British Car Meeting is an annual event, held on the first Saturday of October in Morges on Lake Geneva. More at british-cars.ch

Considered to be the largest British Car meeting held in Europe, it regularly attracts over 1500 British cars and motorbikes of all ages, and an estimated 20,000 visitors.

Everyone’s welcome - car and motorcycle owners who want to display their pride and joy and those who only want to come and look - and it’s all free, thanks to the generous support of the sponsors, whether as a spectator or participant. This is a unique event in Switzerland and one the enthusiast and the entire family can enjoy together.

The event was the brainchild of organizer Keith Wynn, and himself a devotee of classic British motoring and a long time Swiss resident. His original idea was just to offer like-minded car buffs a great day out and provide enthusiasts an opportunity to admire some of the great English marques from the golden days of motoring.

The success of the idea is evidenced by the fact that this event has grown in the last twenty-one years to become one of the most well attended displays of classic British cars on the Continent and certainly the only one of its kind in Switzerland. Through the generous support of the Morges town authorities, the quayside and ornamental park is reserved for the day to allow the cars and motorbikes to be displayed in a setting that befits their style and adds to everyone’s enjoyment.
