The Grand Trophée des Frontières is a new first edition appearing in the Belgian motor racing calendar, scheduled for 23-25 May 2026 in Chimay, Hainaut. Organized jointly by the Royal Motor Club Eau Blanche Eau Noire and the Willy Mairesse Association, the event is dedicated to historic vehicles over three days. This marks the return of cars to the grand circuit, as no cars have raced on the full track for nearly 20 years since 2007. The programme alternates between timed competition, hill climb, and celebration of automotive heritage.

  • Saturday 23 May features a Classic Regularity Race on the Chimay circuit, testing crew precision over pure speed in the spirit of vintage racing.
  • Historic cars return to the grand circuit for the first time since 2007, marking a significant centennial celebration (100 years since the original 1926 Grand Prix des Frontières).
  • Three days dedicated to historic vehicles and automotive heritage celebrations.
  • Accessible from N53 and N99, with free parking typically provided near the facilities for spectators.
  • Multiple accommodation and catering options available in the town for the three-day festival.
  • Tribute to Belgium's iconic centennial motoring heritage with vehicles from multiple eras.
