MYLE Zürich

The Valley occupies the old Maggi factory site at Kemptthal, between Zürich and Winterthur, a complex of brick industrial buildings reworked into events and workspace after Givaudan sold the area in 2015. It is an unusual setting for a car event, less polished than a concours lawn and more interesting for it.

MYLE runs here on 24 and 25 April 2027, the Swiss leg of a festival that began in Munich and works under the motto „Music meets Mobility". More than forty manufacturers show current cars, motorcycles, boats and future-mobility concepts, with a strong contingent of small-series makers who rarely get floor space at the larger shows. Private owners fill the community parking with supercars and hypercars, and in practice that area often draws more attention than the official stands.

The programme leans hard into lifestyle. Alongside test drives and sim racing there are masterclasses that run from cigar tasting to cocktail mixing, talks with figures from the mobility scene, and DJ sets that carry the day into an evening music line-up. It is closer to a festival with cars than a car show with music, and whether that appeals depends entirely on what you came for. Go for the atmosphere and the visitor metal, not for a serious read on the market.

Kemptthal has its own station on the Zürich to Winterthur line for anyone arriving by train. By car the more rewarding approach is the Tösstal southeast of Winterthur, the valley road tracing the river toward Bauma before the Hulftegg crosses quietly into the Toggenburg. It turns a short hop from the city into a proper drive in either direction.
