Weekend July 18/19, 2026
After years of being relocated around the show field, the PVGP is proud to announce that French Cars now have a permanent home within the Cortile display on the 18th hole of the golf course—it will be called the French Quarter!
In 2019, the Cortile Italian Car Show team invited several Citroëns to display their Maserati-powered SMs in the show area. In 2021, a Pur Sang Bugatti was displayed in the Cortile, along with several other French-made cars.
With the history of many Italian and French marques intertwined, disentangled, and re-entwined over the decades, 2022 became the year that the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix officially established the French Quarter.
Timely, because of the creation of Stellantis in 2019, which merged Fiat Chrysler with Peugeot & Citroën once again, bringing many French and Italian marques under the same ownership.
The French Quarter car show participants enjoy lunch with the Cortile Participants, and their cars will be judged for their own awards on Saturday. On Sunday, French Quarter participants are treated to “Wine on 9,” the VIP trackside viewing area at Westinghouse Pond.
All French Cars
All French cars are welcome, including well-known brands like Alpine, Bugatti, Citroën, Delage and Delahaye and any other French-manufactured cars. Viva La France! We enthusiastically welcome Ineos Grenadier and RDS as sponsors and invite owners to enter their vehicles and join the show.
Your Entry includes:
– Weekend parking for your French car in the Cortile on the golf course.
– Cortile t-shirt, Cortile wine goblet, car decal, and Race Program.
– Lunch for two in the Pittsburgh Golf Club on Saturday.
– Additional lunches can be purchased for $35 each. There are no lunches available Sunday.
