This year, Classic Driver and SOC expand their celebration of car culture and automotive heritage — opening the doors not only to classic cars and modern classics, but also to racing machines. Prepare for an unforgettable, dynamic encounter in the charming alpine setting of Andermatt, where history, speed, and craftsmanship converge.
The Alpine Drive
The driving experience at SOC x Classic Driver Andermatt leads participants along some of Switzerland’s most celebrated alpine routes. With exclusive private access to the Oberalp and Furka Passes — reserved solely for the event with the final approval still pending — the journey unfolds without interruption. The road continues via Ambri Airport in Ticino before sweeping across a selection of spectacular mountain roads, composing a perfectly balanced day of pure driving pleasure in the heart of the Alps.
Departing from Andermatt, the convoy of exceptional cars stretches its legs on the closed Oberalp Pass, carves through the curves of the Furka Pass, descends toward Ambri Airport, and traces a series of unforgettable alpine roads before returning to Andermatt after a morning defined by spirited mountain driving.
The Heritage Parade
With the support of Classic Driver and the unmistakable voice of JP Rathgen, the Parade brings every car to life in the center of Andermatt. During the event, participants cross the town in a curated parade where each car is introduced to the public in a moment that celebrates storytelling, automotive heritage, and the emotional connection between our members and the community. The parade is repeated for a second showcase later in the event.
The Culinary Experience
Over the weekend, guests will be treated to a thoughtfully curated culinary journey, as captivating as the cars themselves. The chef of The Chedi Andermatt will craft distinctive dishes infused with subtle Japanese influences — a hallmark of this iconic alpine retreat. Expect a symphony of engineering and gastronomy.
The Agenda
The SOC x Classic Driver Andermatt event is a celebration of automotive heritage — brought to life through iconic drives across alpine mountain passes, thoughtfully curated culinary moments, and an unforgettable stay at The Chedi Andermatt. At its center is what defines SOC and Classic Driver above all else: a close-knit circle of like-minded enthusiasts, forming the beating heart of our automotive world.
