Česká Lípa became a cinema screen
Film stories stepped off the screen and into the streets of Česká Lípa. Speed Festival 2025 brought cinema and automotive culture together for a weekend in which famous cars met racing machinery, art and experiences behind the wheel.
The second edition shared one theme: film. It featured cars known from the silver screen, from James Bond's Aston Martin DB5 and the DeLorean from Back to the Future to Eleanor from Gone in 60 Seconds. Here, a car was both a technical exhibit and a vehicle for a story.
Ferraris from different generations, single-seaters and NASCAR machines appeared on the city circuit. Grand Prix Česká Lípa complemented the vehicle showcase with a precision event for the Mayor's Cup. Cars in motion against the city backdrop became one of the edition's defining images.
Setinová rally – Memoriál B. Engeho tested crew teamwork on the roads around Česká Lípa. Picnic Race added a film-themed route, challenges and picnic stops. The new Offroad Expedice also took participants into the countryside around Bělá. Each drive offered a different way to experience the festival beyond the centre.
The 130 RS Castle exhibition recalled racing history in the setting of Lipý Castle. Exhibitions, concerts and encounters broadened the programme beyond motorsport alone. The film theme connected the weekend's different parts while keeping the people and vehicles at the heart of the festival.
Thank you to the crews, exhibitors, clubs, visitors and partners who were part of the 2025 edition. Its atmosphere lives on in the photographs, video and results in the festival archive.
