About us

Since 1949, Stichting Tulpenrallye has organised the oldest classic car rally in the Netherlands — carried by volunteers, driven by enthusiasts.

The foundation

Stichting Tulpenrallye is a not-for-profit organisation. Every year we stage several rallies and events, from the major multi-day spring rally to compact editions for those who want a taste of the atmosphere. All proceeds flow back into the event and its traditions.

Organisation and volunteers

Behind every edition stands a team of dozens of volunteers: the route team that spends months surveying and laying out the course, the rally office that guides entrants and their paperwork, the marshals and control points along the way, and the people who turn the start, the finish and the evenings into an occasion.

Objectives and the environment

We drive historic machinery — and at the same time we take our responsibility for the present seriously. Since 2024, participants and organisers of the Tulpenrallye have been planting trees together through Life Terra. If enough crews buy a Life Terra X Tulpenrallye sticker, we can work with Life Terra to offset the carbon emissions of the organisation, the travel to the start, the accommodation and catering, and all rally kilometres by planting trees. The running total is on the home page.
