Now it has happened!

The VGC website is live. After a long and tough move, with great and nice work by Michael Sønderup Nielsen in particular, the vgc2026.dk website is up and running. Almost everything about the rally can be found on the website. The registration form is open for registration. Further details will be added to the website when available, so do take a look once in a while and keep yourself updated!

Another big thing is the construction of our new hangar is well underway. The steel rafters have been erected, and at the end of December a topping-out ceremony was held with a traditional Danish topping-out ceremony menu: red sausages and beer. The purlins have been mounted and the next step is the installation of fire ventilation and the laying the roof. So if everything goes according to plan, the hangar will be finished and can be used at the Rally.

To all interested parties,

Thank you for subscribing to this newsletter regarding the 53rd International VGC Rally, which will be held at the Danish National Gliding Centre in Arnborg from 27 July to 6 August 2026. It is intended that further newsletters will follow and that, as they are published, they will be posted on the rally’s website, while links to the newsletters will be sent by email to those who have requested them.

It is with great pleasure that we warmly welcome all VGC members and other interested parties to Arnborg. We look forward to seeing a large number of participants and their families, and not least a wonderful collection of historic and classic gliders.

This first newsletter marks the opening of the website vgc2026.dk, where it is now possible to register for the rally and find a wide range of information, including accommodation options, programme, prices, etc. The website will be continuously updated with participant lists, photo galleries, practical information and other relevant and inspiring content.
