A highlight will be the special show on the history of French automobiles, where owners of such treasures are invited to present their vehicles.
A celebration for the whole family
Sunday will be the main event from 10 a.m.: cars that breathe contemporary history will conquer Oldenburger Straße as it is closed to traffic. There is also a parallel summer flea market on the North Sea coast, where market visitors have the opportunity to explore interesting stalls and the vintage car exhibition. From 1 p.m. on Sunday, the shops in Rasteder invite you to browse.
A special incentive for car fans: the participation fee is just 10 euros for cars and 5 euros for two-wheelers. Pedestrians enjoy free entry and can relax and enjoy the various vehicle models. The proceeds from the entire event go to the local youth fire departments, which were supported with 1,500 euros last year.
