The wait is over!

The official Ypres Lotus Day 2026 photos are now online and ready to be explored. Whether you came for the cars, the roads, the friendships, the food, or simply to prove your navigator was wrong all day, there's a good chance you'll find yourself somewhere in the gallery.

We've also added a video featuring (almost) every participant passing through Lichtervelde. If you spot yourself, your car, or someone you know, feel free to share it.

Enjoy reliving the memories!
