Pittsburgh 2026 IJF Big Success!
Pittsburgh IJF Celebrates Jaguars, Vintage Racing, and Friends
The 2026 International Jaguar Festival, hosted July 16-18 by the Jaguar Club of Pittsburgh in conjunction with the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix, brought JCNA members together for a successful weekend of driving, competition and Jaguar fellowship.
Jaguar was honored as the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix’s 2026 Marque of the Year, with famed automotive designer Ian Callum serving as Grand Marshal. Festival activities included a rally and scenic tour, slalom competition, an evening presentation by Callum, and a concours held amid the excitement of vintage racing in Schenley Park.
The event also supported the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix's charitable mission, which raises funds for individuals with autism and intellectual disabilities.
👏 The festival’s success reflected the extensive planning of IJF Committee Chair Stu Benson and the many Jaguar Club of Pittsburgh volunteers, as well as JCNA concours judges who welcomed members, kept the weekend running smoothly, and made the concours possible.
Complete coverage of the Pittsburgh IJF, including photos, stories and highlights from the weekend, will appear in the September-October issue of Jaguar Journal.
