From October 2 to October 5, Mallorca played host to the prestigious ICONS Mallorca, an event that is fast becoming a highlight on the FIVA Calendar. Despite being organized in just a few months, starting in March 2024, the event earned the coveted FIVA International Event Award, presented to the organizers during the award ceremony.
ICONS Mallorca unfolded over a week, incorporating four distinctive events. The Concours d'Elegance served as the grand finale, concluding a series of exhilarating rallies for Classic Cars, Ladies' teams, and Supercars. The Concours featured an outstanding jury, supported for the first time by a team of highly qualified young judges who are also very active on social media, injecting a fresh, modern energy into the event.
Charity played an important role in the event, with a dedicated charity night held at the stunning Castillo de Bellver, blending philanthropy with the elegance of this historic venue. The event focused on not only supporting worthy causes but also returning value back to the island, contributing to the local community and ensuring that ICONS Mallorca made a lasting, positive impact on its surroundings.
Set against the stunning backdrop of the Balearic Island, from its beautiful ports to the Serra de Tramuntana mountains, ICONS Mallorca drew automotive enthusiasts and connoisseurs from around the world to celebrate the rich history of classic cars. The event showcased a remarkable collection of rare and iconic vehicles, very well preserved, meticulously restored, from pre-war treasures to post-war legends.
Participants enjoyed scenic driving tours across Mallorca’s breathtaking landscapes, seeing these timeless classics in action. Exclusive dinners and private gatherings offered intimate opportunities for networking with fellow collectors, enthusiasts, and industry leaders.
As part of the FIVA Calendar, ICONS Mallorca underscored the importance of preserving automotive heritage. And, as the organizers proudly stated, "The journey has just begun"—ICONS Mallorca will return from October 7 to 11, 2025, with FIVA happy to confirm its presence once again, ensuring the continuation of this remarkable celebration of automotive history and charity.
