Hosted by ÖEMVV: Oesterreichischer Motor-Veteranen-Verband, the FIVA ANF in Austria.

 

Dear FIVA Members,

 

We're thrilled to invite you to the 58th FIVA General Assembly in Vienna, Austria, on November 16th, preceded by Commissions’ Reports on November 15th.

Just like last year, the event will have a hybrid format, allowing you to join and vote remotely. However, we can't stress enough how valuable in-person interactions are for building connections and exchanging ideas.

The FIVA General Committee and I are genuinely looking forward to meeting you at the Eventhotel Pyramide in Vienna!

Tiddo Bresters

FIVA President
