About this event
Allegheny Region Porsche Club of America
2026 Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix
July 18th and 19th
Plan to attend the 44th annual Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix with ARPCA. Join hundreds of your fellow club members, guests from other regions, and friends as we gather on “Porsche Field” in Schenley Park to enjoy fine automotive culture, vintage races, and the camaraderie that defines PVGP weekend. The Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix is our club’s largest fundraiser of the year, with a portion of net proceeds donated to the PVGP autism charities and other ARPCA - approved local nonprofit organizations.
This year promises to be an outstanding event featuring a multitude of Porsche Club and PVGP events spanning nine days. Porsche Field patrons enjoy high-quality amenities, including a catered lunch from Mission BBQ, Dining and Registration tents replete with linen tablecloths, cooling fans, and unlimited non-alcoholic beverages, live music, high-value raffle prizes, and People’s Choice Awards. The club’s PVGP Committee utilizes a streamlined check-in process where attendees register through Motorsport Registration (MSR) and receive an email from PVGP_Reg@arpca.com with a dash plaque and QR code “ticket” as attachments. As members drive up to the Porsche Field, volunteers scan the QR code and have wrist bands, raffle tickets, and the PVGP program pre-staged at the Registration tent.
Post - Grand Prix Nachgefühl (afterglow) event - October 12th, 2026: This year, we're combining the ARPCA Fall Driving Tour with a private dinner and car show at Narcisi Winery.
