VETERAMA Hockenheimring 2027

VETERAMA has been a fixture of the classic scene since 1975. Its spring edition at the Hockenheimring is the season opener for restorers and parts hunters before the big autumn market in Mannheim. The 2027 spring edition runs from 16 to 18 April in the Hockenheimring paddock, organised by Veterama GmbH.

The organiser gives around 2,500 exhibitors on about 120,000 m2. The offer covers spare parts, accessories, literature, automobilia and complete vehicles, for cars and motorcycles alike. Traders sell from the pit-lane hall and from units on the open-air site, where exhibitors park on their own stands. The market has a reputation for vehicles changing hands at realistic prices.

The Friday is reserved for early buyers. In the organiser's model, Friday afternoon admission requires the Premium (three-day) or Early Bird ticket, which is when serious collectors try to reach the rare parts first. Saturday and Sunday are open to day-ticket holders. According to German Wikipedia, VETERAMA was first held at the Hockenheimring in March 2013, with around 20,000 visitors and 2,500 participants at the premiere, so the brand now covers both ends of the season. The Hockenheim edition followed 24-26 April 2026, and the Mannheim edition runs each October.

Private sellers and traders can still register for 2027 stands. A hall unit of 2 x 3.5 m costs EUR 60, and an open-air unit of 2 x 5 m costs EUR 40, with regular reservation until 31 January 2027.
