Further event information about the Harley Ruhrpott Meeting
The first and most important information is that the event is for early risers. If you think you don't have to go until late in the afternoon, you've already missed the best part and will only see a cloud of dust from Harleys leaving. The whole thing has something of a speed dating experience especially for Harleys. Before 10:00 a.m. the event area is still quiet, the exhibitors are ready and you can see this tumbleweed blowing through the streets like in an old western and at 10:00 a.m. sharp, everything changes.

A very unusual and good event
You actually have to experience it yourself when the big iron gate is pushed open on time and things get started. The Harleys are lined up in front of the gate waiting to be let in, which is basically an event in itself. Then the Harleys are let in in groups so that everyone can park in peace and there is no chaos. If you want to get in quickly, you should have the VIP express check-in card in your pocket. Within the first few hours the area is almost full; there is a temporary stop to entry if it is too full. That's why you should get up early because it's definitely worth it.
What sets the event apart!
Basically, events that charge admission have a difficult time, it feels different here. Five euros from the entrance fee goes to the museum, the location is really something very special, that's why it's worth it. It's “only” a one-day event, but well-known exhibitors from all over the country still drive up, something I've never experienced before. In addition to the three Harley-Davidson authorized dealers, Pfeiffer, MotoMaxx and Thunderbike, the Factory Group Hannover was on site with LiveWire for the first time in 2022.
There will be over 50 exhibitors from the scene on this day at the Harley Meeting Ruhrpott event site. From exhaust systems to jewelry, helmets, headlights and chassis, everything is included.

Is the long journey worth it?
I would say that if you still have vacation days left and the weather is at least halfway along, you should take in the atmosphere and the extraordinary event. The event runs at full throttle for around 5 hours, during which time you have to have seen all the Harleys that drive up there and there are a lot of really nice machines. The location is also great for taking pictures of your own bike, with a beautiful background from the old industrial museum.

two nights in a hotel and simply cruise through the Ruhr area for a weekend, or visit the Thunderbike Store 90 kilometers further away. There are definitely beautiful routes in the Ruhr area.
Advance ticket sales (2023 prices)
I would recommend that anyone who has the opportunity to get a ticket in advance should do so; you will get to the site more quickly.
