Not being held every year. Only every FIVE years.
First time held in September 1982 (20th Anniversary of the 250 GTO), organised by Pierre Bardinon and Jess G. Pourret, and held in Burgundy, France. I remember it well because I drove 3705 GT there.
The 25th Anniversary was held in 1987, organised by Pierre Bardinon, Jess G. Pourret and Jean Berchon of Moet & Chandon, and went from Epernay to Mas du Clos, France.
The 30th Anniversary (in 1992) was not really an anniversary but rather a run from Brussels to Maranello with Jacques Swaters.
The 35th Anniversary was held in 1997 and organised by Jean Berchon of Moet & Chandon and fchatter P. Paul Pappalardo and went from Epernay/France to Monaco.
The 40th Anniversary was held in September 2002 and organised by Jean Berchon of Moet & Chandon and fchatter P. Paul Pappalardo and was held in Burgundy, France. I do remember that event also very well because I assisted a U.S. West Coast-based GTO owner after some French kamikaze driver crashed into his GTO.
The 45th Anniversary was held in 2007 and organised by Jean Berchon of Moet & Chandon with Peter G. Sachs and held in California, USA.
The 50th Anniversary was held in June 2012 and organised by Jean Berchon of Moet & Chandon with Peter G. Sachs and went from Epernay via Le Mans Classic to Versailles in France.
The 55th Anniversary was held in September 2017 and organised by Brandon Wang, Jean Berchon of Moet & Chandon, and the factory, and went from Florence, Italy, to Maranello, Italy. I remember it well because I was invited by the factory and drove my F12 Berlinetta.
