The 28th edition of the Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique promises to be a major milestone in the history of the event. More than a regularity rally, the new edition will introduce significant changes while preserving the authentic, popular spirit that has defined the event. Revised dates, wider vehicle eligibility, six departure cities, closed-road stages – the Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique is embracing a new era. Scheduled to run from from Saturday, 31 January to Saturday, 7 February, breaking away from its traditional Wednesday-to-Wednesday format.
Competitors have a choice between a selection of six departure cities true to Monte-Carlo’s heritage including John O’Groats, Bad Homburg, Barcelona, Milan, Monte-Carlo and Reims. Eligible vehicles must have participated in a Rallye Monte-Carlo between its origins and January 1986. All Regularity Stages will take place on closed roads and there will be two average speeds available, with separate classifications. The Gala Evening will now be included in the entry fee. Pre-regulations and online registration will be available from 3 September, 2025 at acm.mc.
