BMW’s annual celebration of all-things Motorrad has grown into a huge festival, with up to 40,000 guests. Stunt shows, Beer Tents, Bikes, Clubs, Accessory Suppliers, Ride Outs and a great party – Motorrad Days has it all. The festival moved to Berlin for the first time in 2022 and was a huge success. For 2023, Motorrad Days was even better and bigger in its centenary year! 2024 looks to be as exciting!
MOTORRAD DAYS
At a Glance
Tour Overview
For 2024 BMW Tours is offering a unique experience you can’t get anywhere else. This tour is a proven favourite and every year we come up with new routes and new venues, but every year it proves to be hugely popular with many riders returning again and again! There are two options again this year depending on whether you want to cross the channel from the North (Hull/Rotterdam) or from the South (Folkestone Eurotunnel).
Whichever crossing you opt for both routes eventually converge on the continent before spearheading into the Ardennes. The Hartz Mountain ranges are on our radar as we head east toward our final destination Berlin, where so many BMW Motorcycles start their life.
At the Motorrad Days festival we will be based in another 4-star hotel, in the heart of Berlin. The Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie and so many other sites will be a short walk away. We will include tickets to travel by S Bahn (underground / metro) around the city to see the sites and for easy access to the festival.
Saturday night is party night and you will be our guest for dinner and a few steins of cold German beer. The resident band will get you into the mood and onto your feet… get ready to party. The party is legendary and goes on to the small hours. Sunday is a day of rest (and recovery) before we head off for some more great riding on Monday.
The journey home is still an exciting ride, as we return to the Hartz Mountain range and west toward the channel. Unlike all our other tours this tour is NOT restricted to 12 bikes. We have reserved space for up to 100 riders to join the party!
Great guides, beautiful route, fantastic event! All very well put together. Thank you very much
