We’re heading back to Essen! Expect crazy builds, cutting-edge technology, and a celebration of car culture like no other.

We’re excited to share that we’ll be attending Essen Motor Show 2025, Europe’s biggest performance and tuning event which runs from 28 November to 7 December at Messe Essen in Germany. If you’ve never been, imagine a blend of motorsport, tuning, lifestyle, and classic car culture, all under one roof. It’s a proper playground for enthusiasts, and we can’t wait to dive back in.
Having attended Essen in previous years, we know firsthand how diverse and inspiring the builds can be. From widebody track monsters to tastefully restored classics, the show offers a brilliant mix of all things automotive. Whether you're into high end performance, grassroots tuning, or just appreciate clever craftsmanship, there’s something for everyone.
This year’s show promises to be even bigger, with over 500 exhibitors from 16 countries showcasing the latest in:
- Sporty production vehicles
- Tuning and lifestyle upgrades
- Motorsport innovations
- Classic car restorations
- E-mobility and future tech

The halls are split by theme, so you can easily navigate between performance & racing (Hall 3), tuning & lifestyle (Halls 5-7), and classic cars (Halls 1 & 2). There’s also a dedicated show area (Hall 4) and motorsport gallery (Hall 8), plus plenty of space for accessories and gear in the Galeria.
