The annual celebration of the Italian motorcycle manufacturer will once again take place at Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli as World Ducati Week 2026 will be held from July 3rd-5th at the track.
The thirteenth edition of the event will coincide with the 100th anniversary of the company being founded by Antonio Cavalieri and his three sons (Adriano, Marcello and Bruno), who originally formed SSR Ducati to produce vacuum tubes, condensers and other radio components in their Borgo Panigale factory. In 1950, they started producing the Cucciolo, originally just as an engine to mount on bicycles, and then as a 48cc motorcycle capable of 40mph. So it’s also 75 years since they started producing motorbikes, with Ducati Meccanica SpA officially splitting in 1953.

2022 BMW Motorrad Days Dates Set for July in Berlin
After taking a break due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2022 BMW Motorrad Days dates have been finalised as July 2nd and 3rd in the Summer Garden of the Messe Berlin trade fair grounds, following immediately after the 2022 Pure & Crafted festival at the same location on July 1st.
So if you fancy celebrating all things BMW, it’s time to start looking at tickets and accomodation. The 20th event across almost two decades attracts visitors from all around the world to experience everything related to the German manufacturer and the famous roundel logo. And apparently the attractions and activities next year will be broader than ever to cater for all tastes.
Previous events drew around 40,000 visitors with stunt shows, freestyle motocross displays, exhibitions from the history of the BMW brand, live music, food and drink stalls, and more. And there are usually some new bikes or products revealed at what must be the largest gathering of BMW enthusiasts in the world.
It’ll also be the first time that the event has been held in Berlin, as it was previously hosted at Garmisch-Partenkirchen just outside the Bavarian manufacturers’ headquarters in Munich. But the company has strong links to the new location, having produced bikes there for more than 50 years, and potentially attracting a new audience by moving the BMW Motorrad Days into a large city. Plus it’s helpful if you want to go along, but need to accomodate less-enthusiastic family members!
