When night falls on the Circuit des 24 Heures du Mans, the lights never really go out. This year, they will also illuminate a giant screen. From June 12 to 14, 2026, Peugeot and mk2 are launching Drive-In Paradiso by Peugeot, an outdoor cinema set up in the heart of the Fan Zone Concert. For three days, spectators will be able to watch cult films related to automobiles directly from iconic Peugeot models. A new way to experience Le Mans, combining adrenaline, culture, and shared memories.
A unique drive-in at the circuit
The 24 Hours of Le Mans are not just a race. They are images, sounds, a constant tension, and collective emotions that mark each generation. With Drive-In Paradiso by Peugeot, this imagery merges with that of cinema in an experience designed as a genuine festival moment.
Created in collaboration with mk2, the creators of the renowned Cinema Paradiso festival, this giant drive-in has a unique backdrop: the Circuit des 24 Heures du Mans. Here, cars are no longer just used to go to the cinema. They become the cinema.
Some screenings will have an even more special dimension. Some lucky spectators will have the opportunity to watch Taxi on board the legendary Peugeot 406 white car used in Taxi 2. Others can sit in rare models from the Peugeot Adventure Museum and heritage collections, such as a green Peugeot 204 sedan, a Peugeot 504 leisure pick-up by Heuliez, or a Peugeot 604 Ti Limousine.
“With Drive-In Paradiso by Peugeot, we wanted to create a completely immersive cultural experience, fitting the symbolic power of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. By combining cinema with automobiles in a historic location, we demonstrate Peugeot’s ability to connect sports, culture, and emotions, offering the public unexpected and unforgettable moments to share,” said Valérie Candeiller, Peugeot’s global communications director.

Like the Cinema Paradiso festival, Drive-In Paradiso by Peugeot aims to be inclusive. The event is free and accessible by registration through a lottery system. Winners will enjoy a screening for two people with access to the Circuit des 24 Heures du Mans included.
For those not selected, Peugeot and mk2 will also offer several contests on their social media platforms starting at the end of May.
Because at Le Mans, the most beautiful memories are often experienced together: in front of the track, in the stands, and now in front of a giant screen, seated in a car that has become a legend.
