There seem to be fewer events in southern Germany than in the north. Two that I have attended were:
Wein Rallye, and the Heidlauf classic tour.
Wein Rallye is very organized and is a two day event with well signed routes through the Pfälzerwald and Weinstrasse villages. At 450 euro a bit expensive but there are a lot of side events, lunches at castes, etc. The next one will be 15-16 May 2026. Last year we had only 4 Model A.
Heidlauf is less organized (and my favorite). No fee, and it runs similar routes as the Wein Rallye. A two day event along the Weinstraße between Neustadt(Weinstraße) and Wissembourg (FR). The next one is on12-13 Sep This year there were 7 Model As.

Are these the ones organized by the 'IG Ford Modell A'? I have never taken part in one because i always thought that the prices were a bit high but seeing all the side events the prices seem reasonable. It's just that i like driving my A but not more than 160km/100mls per day.
We have (for me) enough events here in our vicinity, events i can reach within one hours drive max. The 'Pfingst' event (whitsun?) in the Freilichtmuseum Hagen including a vintage car rally (saturday) and a big meeting (sunday) with over 100 cars from all eras. The new Hohensyburg event and a lot of others. Usually there's at least one event every weekend in summer plus or local biweekly event.
There ust be some advantage to live in germanys most-densily populated area, no? Ruhrpott...
