RACE WEEKEND

PVGP

SCHENLEY PARK

The signature event of the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix is  our Race Weekend in Schenley Park and it should be on everybody’s bucket list. 150 vintage racers compete over city streets as 100,000 spectators watch the races and browse the car show which contains 3,000 show cars, sponsor tents, vendors and a food court.

HAPPENING  THIS WEEKEND!

The PVGP races vintage cars through the actual city streets of Schenley Park that are mostly European sports cars from the fifties and sixties – see entry list from last year.

Vintage Races

This circuit is considered by many drivers to be the most challenging race course worldwide. With 22 turns, 11 elevation changes, telephone poles, curbs, stone wall and numerous manhole covers, it’s no wonder the 2.33-mile circuit tests driving skills and entertains crowds.

Qualifying races take place on Saturday with the Featured Races on Sunday. Both afternoons feature exciting racing as groups are separated by engine size and year of manufacture.

Spectators browse the 3,000 vehicle car show and watch the vintage races from the Bob O’Connor Golf Course at Schenley Park. There are no grandstands or seating provided.

Spectators

The PVGP was established in 1983  as a charity event and always will be.  In order to continue making a significant donation to our charity partners,  we humbly request a $10/weekend donation from spectators that walk into the Race Weekend in Schenley Park. Anybody entering in a vehicle as a car show participant or as a sponsor/vendor will be given a wristband for the weekend as part of their package.

Entry

Public parking is available on Flagstaff Hill for $30 and up to 4 people in the car receive a wristband for free entry into the event. A free air-conditioned shuttle bus will take you to the golf course or start/finish line. Flagstaff Hill is across the street from the Phipps Conservatory. Enter from the intersection of Frew Street and Schenley Drive.

Parking

Pre-registered Car Show participants can enter the show grounds each day beginning at 8:00 am. There is so much that happens on the Race Weekend in Schenley Park that we can’t fit it all on one page – click below for some quick links to shows and events.
