Munich/Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The BMW Motorrad Days
will take place at the foot of the Zugspitze in Garmisch-Partenkirchen
for the 19th time already from 5 to 7 July 2019. The event organisers
are expecting some 40,000 motorcyclists and motorcycle fans from all
over the world to attend this year, too. Lasting three days, the
gathering at the Hausberg mountain will once again be dedicated
entirely to the international BMW Motorrad fan community and riding
fun on two wheels.
In addition to new products, spectacular stunts, motorsports
celebrities, test ride campaigns and a great deal more, guests can
particularly look forward to the now legendary party atmosphere of the
BMW Motorrad Days. Whether young or old, the program of activities is
so diverse that everyone’s taste is catered for – leaving no room for boredom.
Motorsports and party atmosphere at the Hausberg.
The BMW Motorrad Days have long been established as a must for
motorcycle fans from all over the world. Visitors from distant
countries such as the USA, Japan or Australia, sports, touring and or
enduro riders, customizing freaks or motorsports enthusiasts will all
find their personal highlight to feel great and have loads of fun. Be
it in the beergarden in the daytime or with live music at one of the
many parties in the evening.
Motorsports fans are also fully catered for by a true German
motorcycle racing icon: Helmut Dähne, 1976 TT winner on BMW, is not
only available for autograph session in the BMW Motorrad Classic Tent
every day, but will also provide deeper insights into motorcycle
racing on Saturday from 4.30 to 5.00 pm.
The live broadcasts of the Superbike World Championship from
Donington, England, where the eighth of a total of 13 WC rounds is
being held, are an additional motorsports extra. BMW Motorrad
Motorsport and its BMW Motorrad WORLDSBK Team with riders Markus
Reiterberger and Tom Sykes will be racing for podium positions.
Wild stunts, spectacular FMX show and customizing to the limit.
The stunt performances go to the very limits of riding physics. For
example at the BMW Motorcycle Drift Show with Alex Le Marseillais,
with freestyle artist Mattie Griffin or at the FMX Show in the event
arena. Visitors can also marvel at the wall-of-death riding in the
Original Motodrom, the oldest wall of death in the world. Here, Donald
and his team thunder over the wooden boards on historical motorcycles
in breathtaking style. Motorcycle customizing fans are fully catered
for in the Heritage Area.
Explore the superb mountain scenery on a motorcycle.
The BMW Motorrad Days also offers the chance to discover one of
Germany’s most magnificent landscapes on a motorcycle. There are
organised half-day tours in the Zugspitze region around
Garmisch-Partenkirchen as well as panorama enduro tours accompanied by
local guides. For anyone wanting to see the Alps from the air there
are tandem paraglider flights.
Once again this year there is also a wide selection of current BMW
motorcycle models available for test rides. Reservations can be placed
in advance of the event at www.bmw-motorrad.com/motorraddays.
Offroad and enduro fun directly on the doorstep.
Both off-road newcomers and ambitious enduro riders can explore
fascinating terrain on the off-road track at the foot of the Hausberg.
Under the guidance of professional instructors, visitors can find out
just what the BMW GS models are capable of away from asphalted roads.
Trade show and exhibition area as well as a play area for the
little ones.
The extensive trade show and exhibition area reflects the full
diversity of BMW Motorrad. In addition to numerous product
presentations, visitors will also find some fascinating surprises
here, for example the BMW Motorrad Concept R18 or the BMW R nineT
special model, which will be presented on Friday afternoon at 5.00 pm
in the event arena. Around 100 exhibitors will be on site to advise
potential customers and to present new ideas and innovative BMW
Motorrad related accessories.
Young guests are excellently catered for as well: the play area is
packed with fun, hands-on games, while a specially created Kid’s Track
and Kid’s Try-Out Trial Program ensure that the motorcyclists of the
future can enjoy an exciting, action-packed weekend.
Talk shop with the BMW Motorrad experts and the GS Grophy Marshals.
At the big BMW Motorrad Exhibition Pavilion, visitors have the chance
to engage in a detailed chat with BMW Motorrad developers, engineers
and test riders as well as getting a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the
BMW Motorrad development department. At the “Meet the Marshals of the
Int. GS Trophy”, fans can take a look behind the scenes of the
international offroad event in the BMW Motorrad GS Trophy Tent.
Motorcycling globetrotters and photographers Michael Martin, Rolf
Lange, Julian Eichhoff and Kristján Gíslason provide fascinating
entertainment with their talks at the BMW Motorrad Cinema.
Music, party atmosphere and, with a little luck, a new BMW motorcycle.
But in addition to the action, fun and entertainment, the BMW
Motorrad Days is always about enjoying the fun of a party in true
Bavarian style. As usual, admission is free and the entire set-up has
been perfectly organised. The highlights are the evenings in the big
beer tent where party heroes “Gerry Gary” and the “Münchner
Zwietracht” ensure a thumping atmosphere with the Radio Gong DJ Team.
Camp fire nostalgia is ensured by guitarist “Jimmy Roggers” and in the
Heritage Tent, “Bad Touch”, “The Booze Bombs” and “Jimmy Cornett”
blast out cult rhythms.
For anyone who wishes to stay overnight directly on site, the
campsite in the nearby field offers pitches. Last but not least, the
sale of event pins gives visitors the chance to win brand new BMW
motorcycles – a BMW R nineT special model on Friday evening and a BMW
F 850 GS on Saturday evening.
