Époqu'Auto 2026, the 47th edition at Eurexpo Lyon

Époqu'Auto closes the French show season in Lyon each November, and the 47th edition runs from Friday 6 to Sunday 8 November 2026 at Eurexpo Lyon in Chassieu. Organised since 1979 by members of the Club des Amateurs d'Automobiles Anciennes, it remains a club-run show on a very large scale.

For 2026 the show grows by an extra hall. CarJager counts more than 1,700 vehicles on display, 900 exhibitors and 220 marque clubs, covering cars and motorcycles, commercial vehicles, parts, models, artwork and automobilia. Highlights announced for this edition include a celebration of 40 years of the BMW M3 and M4 and a new village devoted to drifting, alongside regulars such as the Fondation Berliet and Autodiva.

Osenat again holds three auctions in hall 6: motorcycles on Friday 6 November at 18:00, youngtimers on Saturday 7 November in the afternoon and collector cars on Sunday 8 November at 14:00.

The Friday late opening is a well-known feature. The show is open from 09:00 to 22:00 on Friday, with ticket desks closing at 20:30, from 09:00 to 19:00 on Saturday and from 09:00 to 18:00 on Sunday. A one-day ticket costs €16 in online presale until 29 October 2026 and €18 from 30 October, online or at the door. A two-day ticket is €30, the reduced rate is €15, and children under 12 enter free.

Coming in a classic pays off. Car park P4 is free for cars more than 30 years old, while other Eurexpo car parks are capped at €11.50 a day. A new park-and-ride at Groupama Stadium costs a flat €8 per vehicle, including a shuttle to Eurexpo in under 20 minutes, with online booking required. Tram T5 serves the Eurexpo stop, and the car parks open at 07:30. Lyon's low-emission zone rules can affect access by car, so check them before you drive.
