Vintage & Classic Car Meet (Switzerland)
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.

Whether you come in a classic car, on a motorcycle, or with family in tow, you’ll find good food and the company of fellow enthusiasts. It’s a come-as-you-are, relax-and-hang-out day – the staff is there, the coffee is hot, and the parking lot likely still turns into an impromptu mini-meet of whoever shows up.

It’s a family-friendly, photo-friendly event celebrating the enduring chic of Italian scooters and the lifestyle around them.
Flea Market at Ace (Switzerland)
Flea Market at Ace (June 1, 2025) – Kicking off June with the monthly flea market. By now, word has spread, and it’s become a highlight for many. The variety of items up for sale/trade might broaden – perhaps some summer gear or collectibles have surfaced. The routine remains: early setup, a bustling few hours of commerce and conversation, then wrapping up by afternoon as people pack away their unsold wares. Regular attendees know to come early for the best finds. Newcomers are often amazed at what you might stumble upon – maybe an out-of-print service manual here, a set of classic car fog lamps there. The market’s consistency doesn’t make it any less exciting; in fact, repeat visitors build relationships, making each market a reunion of hobbyists as much as a place of business.
Honda “Rides and Vibes” Meet (Switzerland)
Honda “Rides and Vibes” Meet (June 7, 2025) – A Honda Motorcycles meetup presented by Honda Motorcycles Switzerland. This brings together riders of the famed winged brand – from trusty Honda touring bikes to high-revving CBR sportbikes and Gold Wing cruisers. The name “Rides and Vibes” suggests a chill atmosphere alongside the bikes. Honda is known for its reliability and innovation, so expect a diverse lineup: vintage CB series bikes from the ’70s parked near modern Africa Twin adventure bikes or Fireblade superbikes. With official Honda involvement, there could be a demo or two, or at least some branded goodies. The vibe is welcoming to all Honda riders – whether your bike is a beginner-friendly Rebel or a legendary RC30, you’ll find camaraderie here.
Sports Car Meet (Switzerland)
Sportwagen-Meet (June 8, 2025) – A sports car meet where being “loud and fast” is the order of the day. It’s open to sports cars of any make – what matters is performance and excitement. You’ll see everything from modern tuners (like souped-up Japanese imports) to classic European sports coupes and contemporary supercars. The motto “loud and fast, that’s how it must be” is taken to heart – revving engines and spirited accelerations as cars arrive or depart will likely draw smiles. It’s not about any single brand but the shared joy of driving machines built for speed and handling. Enthusiasts can compare notes on track days, horsepower upgrades, and driving techniques. In essence, it’s a petrolhead gathering celebrating the soul of sports cars in all their loud, speedy glory.
Whit Monday Open (Switzerland)
Pfingstmontag Open (June 9, 2025) – On Whit Monday (Pentecost Monday), Ace Cafe is open from 10:00 for another relaxed holiday hangout. Similar to Easter Monday, it’s an informal invitation. Often, groups of riders or car clubs plan a holiday outing with a stop at the Ace. The cafe acts as a checkpoint for those on a long weekend drive through the countryside or a meeting spot for friends who have the day off. There’s no program besides good food and the usual Ace atmosphere. Patrons might lounge on the terrace recounting their weekend adventures. It’s the kind of low-key day where maybe a spontaneous mini-meet happens – for example, a few classic car owners coincidentally show up and end up parking together. The Ace provides the backdrop; the people make the day special.
