The 51st International Borgward Meeting is set to take place in St. Ingbert, Germany, from August 29th to 31st, bringing together enthusiasts, collectors, and historians to celebrate the legacy of the iconic Borgward brand.
A Gathering of Classic Vehicles
Approximately 120 vehicles, spanning different eras and bearing brands such as Borgward, Goliath, Hansa, and Lloyd, will be displayed at the event. These vehicles, in their original condition, will showcase German engineering at its finest. Many of these vehicles will travel under their own power, demonstrating their solid construction and preservation by their owners.
Classic models such as the Borgward Isabella, Borgward Hansa, and Borgward P100 will be on display, allowing visitors to appreciate the design and engineering innovations of these vehicles.
A Cultural Experience

The event strengthens the community of Borgward enthusiasts globally and often incorporates local cultural elements, including food, music, and exhibitions, making it a festival as well as a car meet.
St. Ingbert: A Welcoming Venue

Sharing Knowledge and Experiences
The organizers of the Borgward Meeting emphasize the importance of personal exchange among participants.

Finance plays a significant role in the funding of the event, as sponsorships help cover expenses for the large-scale organization of the 51st International Borgward Meeting.
As the automotive industry showcases its historical milestones at the meeting, participants are exposed to various aspects of transportation's past, which invalidates the notion that it is solely a commercial event, but also a celebration of culture and heritage.
