by Hundreds of vintage cars will be showcased from September 17 to 19 at the largest technical festival, OldCarLand. It will be held at the State Aviation Museum named after O.K. Antonov on 1 Medova Street in Kyiv.
There, amidst hundreds of planes and helicopters, over 10 hectares of territory will display rare vintage automobiles. Many of them played an important role in history and belonged to famous people. The event is organized by the technical classics club OldCarService.
One will be able to see models over 80 years old in motion, old bicycles, mopeds, scooters, motorcycles, and recent works of the best restoration workshops.
The theme of the autumn OldCarLand is “Made in Ukraine.” In the central exhibition of the event, on the red carpet, cars that marked the beginning of the automotive industry in our country will be featured. These models have become popular and iconic for every family.
However, especially for the main theme of OldCarLand, unique samples of Ukrainian technology have been found. This includes one of the two surviving “Tavria” convertibles that AutoZAZ released in a limited batch, a special edition LAZ bus that carried the first Ukrainian Olympic champions, a LuAZ all-terrain vehicle in factory-condition, and a collection of “Zaporozhets” cars from the first to the last model.
One of the oldest cars at OldCarLand will be an Opel P4 from 1935. It will be brought to the festival for the first time. This model has not been driven since the late 1950s and has been preserved in complete and working condition.
Also planned is the “Time Capsule” exhibition. It will feature vintage cars that, despite their age, have a record low mileage and are preserved in almost new condition.
The festival program includes presentations of impressive cars, driving skill contests on retro technology, the “Elegance” contest, retro fashion shows, children’s pedal car competitions, and much more.
During OldCarLand, there will be a stage, food courts with a variety of food, and many vibrant locations and photo zones. There are playgrounds, entertainment areas, and other activities planned for children.
OldCarLand will be interesting for everyone, regardless of age and interests!
Tickets can be purchased at karabas.com or at the ticket offices of the State Aviation Museum named after A.K. Antonov during the event days.
