"We expect 10-15,000 visitors to come to our car meeting. It's one of the largest in Europe, says Verner Hemmingsen, organizer of American Days.

Classic vehicles and music

The big car meeting on Öland, American days, contains an exhibition of classic American cars, motorcycles and trucks – but also music. 25 bands from different parts of Europe will deliver 60's music. Suitable American food will also be served.

"It's not just a car meet, all in one makes it interesting.

"The community and the music are important," she says.

What is so special about American cars?

"Everything," says Helene Magnusson.

Traffic problems

It can get crowded on the Öland Bridge this weekend and sometimes difficult to get to Öland. The Swedish Road Administration warns road users already on the Kalmar side about problems.

Can you responsible have been able to do something to avoid traffic chaos?

– No, it is the Swedish Road Administration and the police, we have been given permission to reduce the speed here so that you get rid of all cars and motorcycles as quickly as possible, we can not do more, says Verner Hemmingsen.
