Car Meets

Triumph Meet (May 3, 2025) – A Triumph Motorcycle gathering presented by Erne’s Euromotos Triumph Zürich​. This event is all about the legendary British two-wheel brand. Riders will rumble in on Bonnevilles, Tridents, Tigers, Rocket III cruisers, and more. Classic Triumphs with their vintage parallel-twin charm park up next to modern Hinckley Triumphs. It’s a showcase of Britain’s oldest motorcycle marque, from café racers to cruisers. The meet, backed by a major Triumph dealer, promises expert presence and maybe even demo bikes or gear. Above all, it’s a day for Triumph owners to swap stories of rides and restorations while reveling in the sound of British twins and triples.

Flea Market at Ace (May 4, 2025) – The monthly flea market returns for May. By now a staple event, it transforms the Ace Cafe into a bustling marketplace of all things automotive. Early birds catch the best deals as vendors line up with tables of parts, accessories, vintage decor, and curios. Shoppers meander with coffee in hand, bargaining over a set of old rims here or a retro helmet there. The spring weather likely draws an even bigger crowd. The vibe is friendly and communal; even if you’re not buying, it’s fun to browse and chat. This meet reinforces the Ace’s role as not just a cafe, but a community exchange for enthusiasts.

Mercedes-Meet (May 10, 2025) – A meet for Mercedes-Benz fans, hosted in partnership with LUEG AG (a major Mercedes dealer)​. The three-pointed star will be everywhere: classic Mercedes SL roadsters, stately S-Class sedans, rugged G-Wagens, perhaps even vintage Unimogs. Owners and aficionados come together to celebrate the engineering excellence and luxury of the Mercedes marque. Dealership support suggests potential showcases of new models or special editions as well​. From the elegance of a ’60s Pagoda SL to the roar of a modern AMG, this meet is a panorama of Mercedes history and performance. It underscores the brand’s motto of “the best or nothing,” in a casual, fan-driven setting.

“Need for Speed” – Racing Cars / Supercars / Hypercars (May 11, 2025) – An exclusive performance-car meet where rarity and speed are key. The event tagline hints “now it gets exclusive – the rarer, the better”​. Expect a showcase of race cars and street-legal exotics: track-day specials, GT race cars, and ultra-rare super/hypercars that seldom come out to play. Ferraris, Lamborghinis, McLarens, perhaps a Koenigsegg or a race-prepped Porsche – all the unicorns of the car world might appear. It’s a day for high-end performance: attendees can drool over carbon fiber bodywork, massive rear wings, and specs that boast 0-100 km/h times under 3 seconds. The meet is about celebrating extreme automotive engineering, where every vehicle is a highlight and “need for speed” isn’t just a phrase, but a shared passion.

Porsche Meet (May 17, 2025) – A Porsche-only meet supported by Porsche Zentrum Zug​. Porsche enthusiasts will congregate in force, likely turning the Ace’s lot into something resembling a Porsche showroom on one end and a vintage Porsche museum on the other. Classic air-cooled 911s, perhaps an iconic 356, modern 911 GT3s, turbo 911s, maybe transaxle classics like 944s or 928s – all can be found. With the official Porsche dealer involved, there could be a new model or two on display (for example, a new 911 variant or an electric Taycan). The camaraderie among Porsche owners runs deep; expect detailed chats about flat-six engines, handling nuances, and Nürburgring lap times. This meet is a must for anyone who appreciates the engineering perfection and motorsport heritage behind the Porsche crest.

Harley-Davidson Meet (May 18, 2025) – A Harley meetup roaring back after its spring debut. Presented by B!XE AG (Harley-Davidson Central Switzerland)​, it’s another round for the Harley riders to take over Ace Cafe. The May edition likely draws even more bikes than the cooler March date did. Rows of Harley-Davidson motorcycles – Sportsters, Softails, Tourers, custom choppers – will line up, shining in chrome. The sound of V-twin engines will fill the air as friends reconnect and new riders join in. It’s not just a bike meet; it’s a gathering of a lifestyle. Leather jackets, patches from various HOG (Harley Owners Group) chapters, and stories of summer ride plans will be in abundance. The Harley meet embodies the “Ride to Live, Live to Ride” spirit at Ace Cafe Luzern.

McLaren Meet (May 24, 2025) – A McLaren supercar meet presented by McLaren Switzerland​. A treat for supercar aficionados, this event spotlights the cutting-edge machines from Woking. McLaren owners will present models like the 570S/720S series, perhaps the hybrid Artura, maybe a rare Senna or even an F1 if we’re lucky. Dealership involvement means professional presence – maybe techs or reps to talk about the cars – and possibly a new model unveiling. For attendees, it’s a chance to see these British supercars up close: dihedral (wing) doors open, showing futuristic interiors, and hear the raspy notes of high-output V8s and V6 hybrids. The meet emphasizes McLaren’s blend of Formula 1 DNA and road car innovation, gathering a community around these high-performance works of art.

Vintage & Classic Car Meet (May 25, 2025) – The late-May edition of the classic meet, closing out spring. By now the classic car community is in full swing, often treating this as a standing monthly club. Cars up to 1995 again fill the lot​ – perhaps with a seasonal twist: convertibles with tops down, vintage cars decorated for spring outings, etc. Visitors strolling through get a free car show, seeing vehicles from their childhood or ones they’ve only read about. Owners exchange tips on summer tours and vintage rallies coming up. The atmosphere is relaxed and familial; many participants know each other by now. The continuity of these meets through the months paints a living timeline of automotive history, one meetup at a time.
