2026 Events
Scenic Tour of Foxburg - Friday, July 17 The Friday Scenic Drive will travel north and east of Pittsburgh on country roads to the breathtaking view at Brady’s Bend Overlook in Rimersburg. From there, we’ll make our way to our group lunch at Allegheny Grille in Foxburg, PA, with our dining room overlooking the Allegheny River. The Registration Fee is $20 per car. Registration does not include lunch. The drive will be limited to 25 cars.
Welcome Reception - Friday, July 17 The Allegheny Chapter is happy to announce arrangements for our traditional Friday Evening Welcome Reception. Join us for Pizza and Wings on the rooftop deck of the Hotel Indigo. We like to welcome our guests by sharing distinctly Pittsburgh experiences. If you are from the ‘Burgh and the Squirrel Hill neighborhood in particular, one question you may have been asked is which do you like better: Mineo’s or Aiello’s. Both pizza houses have long standing Pittsburgh histories. We will order Pizza and Wings from both houses and let you decide which is best! As is our tradition, the hotel will provide a cash bar, but the first drink is on the Chapter! We should also have a few door prizes. We ask for a $25 registration fee to attend the event.
Schenley Park Race Weekend - July 18-19 With the announced opening of the Panther Hollow Bridge, we are excited to welcome back the full course complete with racing BMWs. Join the region’s premier car show at the BMW Club’s Schenley Park Car Corral, featuring a special celebration of the iconic BMW E30 M3. With wheel-to-wheel racing once again charging past the tent, there’s no better place to experience the action. Your registration includes weekend parking in the Car Corral, access to the BMW hospitality tent, a race program, and a commemorative decal. Known for its welcoming atmosphere, the BMW Club tent at Turn 13 is one of the best vantage points on the course.
