Kawasaki Meet (Switzerland)

Kawasaki Meet (Sept 14, 2025) – A Kawasaki motorcycle meet co-hosted by Kawasaki Switzerland and Mototech​. The signature Kawasaki lime green will be visible everywhere – from the fairings of Ninja sportbikes to the gear riders wear. Fans of Team Green unite: you’ll see legendary bikes like the vintage Z1, the GPz900R (Top Gun bike), Ninja sportbike lineup from the ZX-7R to modern ZX-10R, maybe some cruiser models like Vulcans, and also Kawasaki dirt and dual-sport bikes. With official backing, there might be a new model (maybe the latest Ninja H2 hyperbike or a new Versys) on display. Riders will debate the merits of Kawasaki’s famously powerful engines (recalling the era of the ’70s “King of Motorcycles” 903cc), or brag about how Kawasaki led the horsepower wars in the 2000s. Kawasaki’s slogan has been “Let the good times roll,” and indeed this meet is a good time for all who have ever felt the rush on a Kawi.

Hot Rod & Custom Car Meet (Switzerland)

Hot Rod & Custom Car Meet (Sept 20, 2025) – A gathering for hot rods and custom cars, where one-of-a-kind creations are the stars​. The tagline hints that rare and unique vehicles are especially appreciated​ – “your rarity is gladly seen at the Ace.” Expect an eclectic mix: chopped and channeled 1930s hot rods with flame paint jobs, sleek lead sleds from the ’50s, modern custom builds with big-block engines on display, and rat rods with rust and character deliberately left intact. It’s a feast for the eyes – no two vehicles alike. Owners here are builders and artists; they’ll eagerly share stories of how they fabricated a part or sourced a vintage engine. The event is likely buzzing with rockabilly tunes and an old-school vibe, as hot rod culture often goes hand-in-hand with retro style. Spectators love this one because it’s pure spectacle and creativity, representing the “custom culture” where imagination is the only limit.

Harley Meet (Switzerland)

Harley-Davidson Meet (Sept 21, 2025) – By now almost a regular fixture, the Harley meet returns as autumn begins. There’s a noticeable difference: some riders have swapped to fall gear (leather jackets are on, maybe even some handlebar mitts appearing if it’s chilly morning). The camaraderie hasn’t cooled a bit. If anything, this might be a “farewell to the main season” meet for some, as late Sept can mark the end of frequent rides for those who don’t ride in winter. They make it count – perhaps organizing a group ride after the meet through the scenic fall landscapes. The familiar sponsor, B!XE AG, ensures continuity in support​. The meet is a testament to the enduring Harley community; through multiple meets, the turnout stays strong. It underscores that the bond among Harley riders isn’t a once-a-year thing but a lifestyle – they’ll gather as often as possible to share that bond, weather permitting.

British Car Meet (Switzerland)

British Car Meet (Sept 27, 2025) – Another British car gathering, likely a second one after April. This time, the presenting partner is Carrosserie Fischer AG (as per listing)​ – interestingly, Fischer was also the partner for the American Classics meet, showing their range. Once again, the Union Jack flies high as British car enthusiasts assemble their Austins, Bentleys, MGs, Triumphs, Jaguars, Lotuses and more. By late September, some may arrive in tweed caps and scarves for the cooler weather, adding to the British ambiance. The event likely mimics April’s format – all UK makes welcome – but with a different seasonal backdrop. Perhaps some classic British saloons that sat out the summer heat make an appearance in cooler weather. The meet illustrates how passion for British cars persists year-round: whether spring or fall, the call of “Only British cars please” finds an eager audience​. Tea and biscuits still optional, but plenty of camaraderie assured.

Vintage & Classic Car Meet (Switzerland)

Vintage & Classic Car Meet (Sept 28, 2025) – The final Sunday of September hosts another classic meet. Autumn colors might be creeping into the trees, providing a picturesque frame for the classic cars. Some owners may declare this their car’s last run before winter storage, making it a bittersweet gathering. There’s talk of fuel stabilizers and winterization amidst the usual admiration of vehicles. The tagline seen earlier “Oldtimer Meet bei uns”​could apply – oldtimers meet with us – emphasizing that Ace is home for these cars. The meet might have a slightly wistful tone as folks reminisce about all the events of summer. Yet, it’s also a bit celebratory: one more successful outing, one more day spent living the classic car dream. Die-hard enthusiasts will of course continue to meet as weather allows, but for many casual owners, this might be a season closer. They certainly make it a good one, with engines purring contentedly before the winter sleep.

Trucker Meet (Switzerland)

Trucker-Meet (Oct 4, 2025) – A truck meet for big rigs, where bigger is better​. This event invites truck drivers to bring their lorries (semis without trailers – “nur Solo” implies trucks will come tractor-only) to show off. It’s quite a sight: massive European long-haul trucks in bright company liveries or custom paint, alongside maybe some classic trucks preserved by enthusiasts. The motto “umso grösser, umso besser” – the bigger, the better – sets the tone​. Whether it’s a towering Scania or Volvo with chrome horns and lights, or a vintage Saurer truck from Switzerland’s past, they’re all admired. Some might decorate their trucks since it’s a special occasion (flags, lights). Truckers swap road stories, compare engine torque, and kids gape at the sheer size of these machines. It’s a different demographic than the usual sports cars, and it broadens the Ace’s community – acknowledging the truckers who literally keep the world moving. For one day, they get to be the stars, and their “office” – the truck cab – is treated like the marvel it is.

Flea Market at Ace (Switzerland)

Flea Market at Ace (Oct 5, 2025) – The October flea market might be one of the last outdoors ones if weather turns later, so it could be packed. People might be both selling off before winter and grabbing things for winter projects. The mood is a bit cooler and crisper, possibly with some stands offering warm drinks. It continues the tradition strongly – the community now almost expects these and would miss it dearly if it stopped. Perhaps an announcement is made about a hiatus or indoor version if any during winter. Deals are made – better to sell that spare part now than have it collect dust till spring. And as always, new friendships are forged across the tables of second-hand goods. By now, this flea market has probably drawn attention beyond immediate locals; folks from other regions might drive in just for the unique chance to find treasure at Ace Cafe Luzern.

Sports Car Meet (Switzerland)

Sportwagen-Meet (Oct 11, 2025) – A reprise of the loud-and-fast Sports Car Meet, now in autumn (like the one in June). The cooler air is great for performance – engines love it – so perhaps even more spirited revving and maybe some impromptu exhaust sound comparisons take place. The mix of vehicles is similar: multi-brand, united by performance. One difference: some owners of very high-end exotics might have stored their cars by October, but plenty of sports car owners in Switzerland will still be active until the first snow. The meet remains a melting pot: JDM tuner cars, European sports coupes, American sports cars – all trading thumbs-ups. With no single marquee focus, it’s one of the most inclusive performance meets. You could see a Mazda MX-5 parked next to a Ferrari; both are sports cars at heart and welcome. The underlying theme remains that speed and sound bring smiles, and everyone leaves with a bit of adrenaline in their veins (even if it’s secondhand from watching a daring departure).

Opel Meet (Switzerland)

Opel Meet (Oct 12, 2025) – A meet for Opel enthusiasts. Opel, being a popular European marque especially in past decades, has a dedicated fan base. The tagline was a simple “Komm ins Ace” in the listing​, so essentially just an invite. Owners of classic Opels – like the Opel Kadett, Manta, GT (“baby Corvette”), Rekord, etc. – as well as modern Opels (Corsa, Astra OPCs, Insignia) gather to give the lightning bolt badge its due spotlight. Opel has been General Motors’ European arm for years (until recently under Stellantis), and it’s often underappreciated. This meet allows Opel fans to show pride: you might hear arguments that a Manta can be just as cool as an equivalent Ford or that the Opel Lotus Omega was one of the greatest sports sedans ever made. It’s also likely family-friendly – many have memories of learning to drive in an Opel, so there’s nostalgia. It’s a nice display of an everyman brand’s history, showing that at Ace Cafe, even the daily cars of yesterday have a place to shine.

Saab Meet (Switzerland)

Saab Meet (Oct 18, 2025) – A meet celebrating Saab, the cult Swedish carmaker that, though it stopped production in 2011, lives on fervently in enthusiasts’ hearts. “Es gibt sie doch noch.” – “They do still exist,” the tagline proclaims​, referring to Saabs (and perhaps their quirky drivers). Indeed, Saabs still roam the roads, and here they gather: from early two-stroke Saabs and the classic 99 and 900 (with their turbocharged innovation) to later 9-3s and 9-5s. Saab owners are known for their loyalty and the unique bond (it’s often said owning a Saab is like being in a club). The meet will have lots of talk about Saab’s aircraft heritage (maybe a Saab fighter jet poster or two for fun), the longevity of their cars (“my Saab has 400k km and still strong”), and the scarcity of parts since Saab’s demise. It’s a bit bittersweet – celebrating a beloved brand that “still exists” only in maintenance of old models. But mostly it’s joyful: seeing dozens of Saabs in one place is increasingly rare, and it reminds everyone why Saabs were special: innovative, safe, and a dash of Scandinavian quirkiness.

Volkswagen Meet (Switzerland)

Volkswagen Meet (Oct 19, 2025) – A VW meet, seemingly with the tongue-in-cheek tagline “Es gibt sie doch noch.” (the same as Saab’s) likely meaning “they still exist” – possibly implying a focus on older VWs or models you don’t see often​. Volkswagen being such a broad brand, the meet could be huge, but it might zero in on classics and enthusiasts’ VWs rather than every Golf on the street. Think classic Beetles, Microbuses, Karmann Ghias, Golfs Mk1 to Mk3 (GTIs especially), Sciroccos, Corrados, and perhaps some special modern VWs (Golf R, etc.). It’s basically a celebration of the People’s Car company. From air-cooled to water-cooled generations, VW has a rich enthusiast culture. You might see a line of Beetles with period roof racks, or a cluster of modified Golfs showcasing Euro-tuning styles (low and clean). Conversations flow about everything from the simplicity of the Beetle’s flat-four to the latest GTI’s tech. Volkswagen’s community is diverse – much like their cars – and this meet encapsulates that, possibly reminding everyone that even if some old VW models are rare now, yes, they still exist and are cherished.

American Car Meet (Switzerland)

American Car Meet (Oct 25, 2025) – Yet another all-American car meet, rounding out the season for the Yankees. By late October, this might be the last hurrah for some before storing cars for winter. “Alle Amis willkommen” still holds​ – all American cars welcome – so it’s broad. Turnout could lean toward those who maybe missed earlier meets or just can’t get enough. Some might even bring a touch of Halloween to it (since end of Oct): perhaps a car decorated with a pumpkin or a hearse (if any American hearses around) showing up for spooky flair. It’s essentially similar to the earlier American meets: a variety of muscle, classic, and modern American rides, enjoyed in a convivial atmosphere of shared fondness for American car culture. The engines rumble just as sweetly in the fall air. If it’s one of the last meets for these folks until spring, they make it memorable – extra revs, extra photos, and invitations to stay in touch over the winter.
