Cars & Caffe's Festival Italiano VII

What is Festival Italiano?

Back in 2017, Cars & Caffe launched Festival Italiano with the vision of hosting one of the premier Italian-only automotive experiences around.  Since then, it has grown tremendously, and we look forward to the 7th iteration on May 18th, 2025.

At-a-glance

This year's event is being held at the beautiful Ramapo College of New Jersey in 'The Grove' within their Mahwah campus.  Cars will be staged carefully throughout 'The Grove' by category and marque.  Exhibitors and sponsors will be treated to a hospitality suite during the event and all attendees will have the opportunity to watch the Italian Grand Prix on site! 


Festival Italiano VII is sponsored by:

  • The Seminara Group at Morgan Stanley
  • Di Bella Fiats
  • Wide World Ferrari

refreshments

Italian-themed refreshments will be available for purchase on site, including fresh mozzarella, Italian coffees, gelato, pizza made on the spot and more!

the cars

Festival Italiano offers a curated display of various Italian marques, including Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, Fiat, Lamborghini, Maserati and many more!  Vintage, exotic and unique vehicles will be highlighted and participating cars are automatically entered to win various awards in class and overall.  Spectators will be able to vote for the 'People's Choice' award!

Spectators 14 and older must purchase tickets either online or in person.

Event policies

Cars & Caffe events always enforce a responsible behavior policy.  We do not tolerate reckless behavior, burnouts, excessive noise, etc.  We also enforce spectator behavior as well - spectators encouraging car owners to drive recklessly or refusing to cooperate with staff will be dismissed from the venue.  The safety of our attendees is most important to us.  Please never stand in the street/roadway or active driveways.


Ramapo College policy prohibits pets on campus.  While we love our furry friends, we ask you to keep your pets at home for this event.


Drones are strictly prohibited at Cars & Caffe events unless you have written consent from Cars & Caffe. Inquiries for drone use must include the operator's FAA license and current COI.
