Four days full of SM'art!

From Ascension Day, May 14, to Sunday, May 17, 2026, we'll immerse you in the world of the Citroën SM – four days filled with wonderful rides, encounters, exhibitions, and stories.

We'll start in Hoorn, where the Van der Valk Hotel will serve as our base. Hoorn is a beautiful example of a Dutch trading and port city, situated on the IJsselmeer lake, with typical Dutch architecture, particularly from the 16th and 17th centuries.

During the SM'art Rally, we explore the authentic Dutch "polder landscape" – land that we created ourselves: "we created land, as flat as possible."

We visit the world-famous Louwman Automobile Museum , where the finest collection of SMs shines in "55 years of Citroën SM".

At the equally world-famous " Feadship " we discover how luxury yacht building and pure craftsmanship breathe the same spirit of innovation as the SM did back then.

The film "Project S" features unique interviews with Robert Opron, Jerry Hathaway, and Jay Leno, among others – a historical document full of passion, vision, and speed.

In the evenings there is time for conviviality: communal dinners, music and conversations full of passion and memories.

SM'art connects art, technology, and emotion – an ode to style, craftsmanship, and the timeless beauty of SM.

Welcome to SM'art26!
