BMW MOTORRAD DAYS CONFIRMED
BMW Motorrad has confirmed that the 21st edition of the popular BMW Motorrad Days festival will take place from July 7-9 . The annual celebration of all things BMW motorcycles will take on extra meaning this year , as the brand looks to celebrate its 100th anniversary . “ We successfully anchored the BMW Motorrad Days at the BMW plant location in Berlin last year with a new concept and there will be no shortage of highlights at this year ’ s 100th BMW Motorrad anniversary event ,” says the Head of BMW Motorrad , Dr . Markus Schramm . “ This time , we will not only be offering a wide range of exciting activities at the central event in the Summer Garden at Messe Berlin trade fair , but also other event areas in and around Berlin to meet the wishes and interests of our customers and fans . For example , the
Pure & Crafted Festival takes place at the same time , which BMW Motorrad initiated and for which it is also the title sponsor , there are tours of the BMW Motorrad plant in Spandau or there is the MCC Schenkenhorst off-road area , where the International Qualifying for the BMW Motorrad International GS Trophy 2024 in Namibia will also be held from July 6-8 . In short , for our 100th BMW Motorrad anniversary , we have put together an action-packed programme for our visitors . And I can promise you : Everyone will get their money ’ s worth here .” As part of the expanded activity lineup for BMW Motorrad Days , riders can try out to take part in the next International GS Trophy , which will be held in Namibia next year . This is specifically targeted at riders whose home country does not offer national qualifying for the BMW Motorrad International GS Trophy 2024 . That means if you ’ re a keen Kiwi and have what it takes you can strut your stuff on BMW ’ s home turf to try and make the team . Only the top three will then form an “ International Team ” for the first time in the history of the GS Trophy . As a way to mark the 100th anniversary , BMW Motorrad Days visitors can also look forward to a special exhibition with motorbikes and experiences from every decade of the company ’ s 100-year history .
