Hamburg Harley Days and the next Harley-Davidson events in 2024

A short feedback on the Hamburg Harley Days 2024 and what my next Harley-Davidson events will be that I have on the road map this month.

The next Hamburg Harley Days will take place from June 27th to 29th, 2025 . For those of us who book early, this is probably the most important piece of information. Here is the link to Booking.com , 1 I would always recommend the cancellation option for long-term bookings, so everyone is on the safe side if something changes to the date.

Feedback on the Hamburg Harley Days

The Hamburg Harley Days were generally good. It started a little late on Friday, but by 6 p.m. the place was well filled. Thursday with its storms certainly stopped some bikers from traveling north. But on Friday and Saturday we had the best weather in the Hanseatic city. Sunday was rather cloudy, with light rain.

Luckily, the much-anticipated rain chaos during the parade did not materialize. I was standing with two friends and we were looking at three different weather apps. Everyone hinted at the downfall. You can really forget about that – in the end it was only a light rain for a short time. The parade was on hold because of the weather forecast, the decision was only made very shortly before the start when it was clear that the announced heavy rain would not come and then it was carried out. Around 1,500 bikers came to do the tour over the Köhlbrand Bridge. The organizer was supported by the Metropolitan Chapter, which provided a corresponding number of blockers.

The bands were in demand, there was always a lot going on in front of the stages, a good music program was just as interesting as the many beautiful bikes. The football game was also broadcast on Saturday, but the weather really hit them hard.

What we didn't like so much was the ticket and wristband concept; many people drove past the checkout with their online code. You have to exchange the code for the wristband before you enter the premises. Difficult thing, because if you send them beforehand, then suddenly there are noisy copies. The best way to solve this would probably be with an app.

You could already see in the Harley Days Facebook event that there were many supposed ticket offers from private individuals. Unfortunately, it was difficult to control the spam because they were constantly posting their fake offers. There was little criticism on the subject of admission this year, as I said, only the thing with the wristbands and some people were missing the fireworks. The police were particularly out and about on Friday, they used civilian vehicles to get their potential customers, someone always gets caught, but we have seen this all more violently in the past.

Although we had very good weather on Friday and Saturday, the storms in the south and the poor forecast are probably responsible for the fact that it was well filled, but not really full all the time. Saturday was great, a lot of people who made a quick decision came by, you could tell from the traffic jam in front of the ticket booth, otherwise they would all have already had a ticket. I liked it, you always meet a lot of people and the best thing is all the bikes that we all want to see.

SWISS HARLEY DAYS 2024

My next tour is going to Switzerland this week for the Swiss Harley Days in Lugano. The event only takes place every two years and I have never been there before, but now there is a full program for it. From July 5th to 7th, 2024, several thousand Harley bikers are expected in this beautiful Swiss town. For the first time, Harley-Davidson is presenting the “Andermatt Freedom Ride” on July 4th in Andermatt.

The event on Piazza Gottardo in front of the Radisson Blu marks the start of the Swiss Harley Days 2024. Another highlight is the shared ride over the Gotthard to Lugano on July 5th - the official “ride in” for the Swiss Harley Days 2024. Under At the following link you will find a lot of information and tips about the event that I have put together for you. Swiss Harley Days 2024

BIKE DAYS WILLINGEN

From July 11th to 14th, 2024 there will be a lot going on in Willingen, the new organizers are the shooting stars of the scene this year. Born out of necessity, such solidarity has developed in the small town in the Sauerland to keep the event, which was canceled by its predecessors, alive. I was there to get an impression of the new organizers. I'm sure I won't burn my fingers if I put in a good word for you. The event will be better than before!

They pulled everything together more and even thought about the European Championship final on Sunday. Because they are going into extra time and are showing the finale on the big screen on Sunday at the event site. So no one has to miss out on the game, public viewing makes it possible. It's best to go to extra time yourself and stay until Monday.

Warsteiner Balloon Glow will create the right atmosphere in the evening. There are many exhibitors and Harley-Davidson supports the event through its authorized Harley-Davidson dealers Pfeiffer and MotoMaxx. So there's talk that the whole place will be branded with Harley-Davidson, I'm excited to see what's to come. There are still limited VIP park tickets available for €12.

According to my information, those responsible at Harley-Davidson will take a look around there to get an impression of the event and whether the event will be fully included in the official Harley-Davidson world next year. For such a small place, that would be a great recognition, and Harley-Davidson already supports an unusual amount.

In any case, I have Willingen on my road map and will be there, I'm excited to see what's going on there.

Harley Days Dresden

The Harley Days Dresden will take place again from July 26th to 28th, 2024. The beautiful, or perhaps even the most beautiful, city in the east of the Republic awaits us bikers again on the large open-air area, at the Rinne. There is an extensive program and so far I have always seen many very unusual and very beautiful Harleys there.

The custom bike show is one of the absolute highlights, but the biggest event is the big Harley-Davidson parade on Sunday, which runs through the middle of Dresden. Here, too, such a large parade does not work without the help of members of the chapter. The HOG Chapter Dresden works together with the authorities to ensure that everything runs smoothly. Not to be forgotten is the beautiful surroundings of Dresden. Basically, you can easily spend a week here exploring the city itself and the surrounding area. some tour tips for the Harley Days Dresden here on the Harley site.

There is a lot to experience this month. Remember, just working doesn't make you happy either. Do something, even if it's just a few days away from everyday life. This way you often recharge your batteries for your tasks than if you stay trapped in your everyday life!

See you!

REVIEW - 120th Harley-Davidson Budapest Anniversary

The 120th Harley-Davidson Anniversary Festival in Budapest was, as expected, a great success. Tens of thousands of Harley fans came not only from Europe but from all over the world; bikers even came from Singapore. Already on Thursday the show really took off, the band Airborne performed brilliantly on the mighty system. The system had a lot of pressure, the project of good sound was a success!  

The area around the Puskás Aréna was really very large, behind the arena it was a bit confusing, anyone who was in the running area had a full house. The feedback from the exhibitors was very good, apart from a few problems with the organization of the tent construction, there were only positive comments. What was really amazing was the constant queue at the merchandise tent. From Thursday to Saturday, there was no waiting in line for less than an hour. The festival site opened at 10:00 a.m. and by 10:05 a.m. the line was as usual and by Saturday evening everything was gone.

Really crazy, but everything was needed, in the end some bikers were keen on the banners in the city in order to cut off a few meters from them. Not everyone managed to do that, the police kept an eye on it after more and more reports came in, it could end up being stupid.

The EXPO was a huge success; there were really nice exhibits there. Harley-Davidson had built up 120 years of history and well-known customizers also exhibited their custom bikes in the EXPO hall. Big in the race were the CVO models and the various Harley-Davidson special models that were on display. You can find Harleysite videos on YouTube and Facebook.  

The 120th Harley-Davidson Parade through Budapest.

The parade was a highlight, not for everyone, but those who were at the front got the full program. It's really crazy how many onlookers were waiting on the streets for the parade; tens of thousands of videos were filmed. The problem was that for some reason the police had temporarily stopped the parade because of the tram, which caused a bit of confusion. That was a bit unfortunate, they don't do it that often here, which is of course a shame for the bikers and visitors.

Budapest is an old but beautiful city, I was able to talk to many of you, it was really great to see the great tours that many of you had in conjunction with the event.

It was definitely worth being there, the organization was probably better in Prague, but in the end the anniversary party in Budapest was also a complete success. 

The official numbers are not yet known, 6000 Harleys were allowed to take part in the parade and there are said to have been 7000, in total there were probably more, but who knows!

Review – Super Rally Sweden 2022

Arrive early to secure the best seats! That was certainly the motto of the Super Rally 2023 in Sweden. Already on the weekend before the actual event, the first bikers made their way to the island of Öland in Sweden, from all corners of Europe.

Accordingly, there was a huge backlog in front of the entrance to the event. You couldn't book the ticket for €85 online in advance, but otherwise everyone was relaxed despite the waiting time because things were always progressing.

Nobody expected this rush, additional paddocks were cleared to accommodate all the bikers until the weekend. The area was absolutely in a great location, a beautiful area and the weather had pretty much everything to offer, June can still be cool in the far north.

Entrance to the Super Rally 2022

Basically it was a good event, here and there a few questions arose as to why they charged so much entry? The Scandinavians are actually better at live music and the biggest drawback was the sanitary facilities. Absolutely clean, but just not enough of them, including the showers. The breakfast could be described as a bit strange, but that's what it is.

The stage for the live music was open air, luckily everything went well, you saw it differently, you didn't even expect bad weather and so there weren't that many bikers coming either. Because they're all getting older and their bones aren't getting any younger, you still drive the kilometers and still set up the tent in the traditional way, respect!

The police were particularly deployed on Sunday and, as already announced, carried out alcohol and drug checks. The Swedish police focused on ensuring that no one left the island of Öland completely out of their minds and in a daze.

Sometimes you see newer Harleys at the Super Rally, which has changed compared to before. Sometimes custom bikes are there, but usually the old thunder ovens are still around here. At the Super Rally it is the case that only Harleys come onto the site, and they remain true to that. In any case, the island shook over Pentecost, so it's clear that you should take a look at the area if you're ever on the island of Öland.

The Super Rally 2023 will take place in Greece. The town of Igoumenitsa is also on the coast, you can find a few tips on how to get there in the Harleysite event calendar .

CONCLUSION: The Super Rally is always worth a trip, it doesn't hurt to be a little self-sufficient when it comes to supplies, you don't know beforehand how full it will actually be and if it is full, you'll have to wait everywhere. There are lots of cool machines to see, when a slight hint of the smell of petrol blows over the camp and the machines start in every corner, it's a cool feeling.

Thanks to Bakerman / Neustadt – Holst. and Hermann!

Super Rally in Sweden 2022

Harley-Davidson meeting traditionally takes place at Pentecost , this time the Super Rally in Sweden. Thousands of bikers made their way to the party on the island in the far north. Harleys have been arriving from all over Europe since the beginning of the week and the place is so full that it has already been expanded.

There were long waiting times at the entrance during peak times, which is nothing unusual when thousands of bikers want to get to the Super Rally site. There were occasional checks before the bridge to the island of Öland, but you should be particularly careful on the way home not to have any residual alcohol in your veins. While we pay attention to volume, the law enforcement officers in Sweden are more keen to give drivers an alcohol test.

The Super Rally is organized by the FH-DCE SUPER RALLY (Federation Harley-Davidson Club Europe) in a different country every year. In 2023 the event will take place in Greece. There is still camping and there is no need for fancy here.

In any case, the party is in full swing and something seems to have broken. The weather is mixed, but mostly good; it can still get quite cool at night in Sweden in June.

Despite the €80 entry fee, the hut is full and the sanitary facilities could have been a little more extensive. If you don't like this in general, you can also switch to the campsites that are available on the island.

It's been a long time since we've seen so many Harleys in one place. Only Harleys are welcome at the event; no other make will come here.

Let's rock

In coordination with Harley-Davidson Germany GmbH, the organizers have now decided not to hold both events in 2020 . None of those involved took this decision lightly, but in view of current events, everyone agrees that the health of visitors, exhibitors and employees is the top priority.

“The Harley community is very important to us,” said Lisa Wacha , Marketing Event and Consumer Experience Manager at Harley-Davidson Germany GmbH . “Harley-Davidson also means community – riding together, celebrating and having fun. That's what makes us who we are. So we tried everything together with the organizers to ensure that the two events still took place. Unfortunately, the final cancellation is now inevitable. We deeply regret this and are aware that it is sad news for all friends of our brand.

Guys, we will miss you in Hamburg and Dresden!”
Harley Davidson

In order to make decisions regarding events planned later in 2020, Harley-Davidson continues to closely monitor the development of the spread of the virus and is in close contact with the relevant offices and authorities.
