Riva Classiche at Rétromobile: Timeless elegance and Italian expertise in the spotlight in Paris

In the prestigious setting of the Salon Rétromobile, the unmissable event for classic car enthusiasts, Riva Classiche, a subsidiary of the Ferretti Group specialising in the restoration and maintenance of classic boats, will be showcasing an iconic model: a Riva Aquarama Special from 1972, meticulously restored and offered for sale. The event will be held from 5 to 9 February 2025 at the Parc des Expositions de la Porte de Versailles in Paris.

The Riva Classiche stand will offer an immersion in the refined world of the brand, with a space dedicated to the Riva Boutique, where visitors will be able to discover a selection of clothing, home accessories and collectibles inspired by the brand's timeless aesthetic. An exclusive Riva Lounge will complete this experience, hosting, on 5 February, the award ceremony for the Trophée de l'Académie Bellecour, which each year recognises the best work dedicated to the automotive industry.

For more than 180 years, the Sarnico workshop, founded by Carlo Riva in 1957 under the name Boat Service, has perpetuated exceptional know-how in nautical restoration. By preserving the original techniques and materials, Riva Classiche endeavours to safeguard and pass on the soul of these exceptional boats, a commitment that resonates with the passion of classic car collectors.

This philosophy finds particular resonance at Rétromobile, which this year honours the world of collectible watches with Time On Show, a leading event in the field of vintage watches, organised in partnership with Riva. A perfect alliance between heritage, elegance and the art of time.
