A NEW STAR IN THE MOTORCYCLE PARTY SKY
From July 8 to 12, the Harley Days Willingen will take place in the Sauerland region
(Frankfurt, 10.02.2026) - Willingen is located in north-western Hesse on the border with North Rhine-Westphalia and is much loved by nature lovers, party fans - and bikers. After all, the Sauerland region with its winding routes through extremely varied landscapes is a real motorcycling paradise. The Bike Days Willingen, which will take place this year from Wednesday, July 8 to Sunday, July 12 and will be called Harley Days Willingen for the first time, contribute to this.
Adelung as a genuine Harley-Davidson event and one of the US manufacturer's most important events in Germany underlines how strongly the festival has developed in a very short space of time. As always, not only Harley-Davidson owners are welcome, but all motorheads and fans of good humor.
The event area, which is free to enter, is located behind the Sauerland Stern Hotel in Willingen and is now called Harley Village - a huge area where motorcycles will line the streets day and night and where you can store in a relaxed atmosphere. Numerous Harley-Davidson dealers and independent dealers from the region and from all over Germany will present bikes, accessories and fashion.
A number of live bands will provide the perfect soundtrack, while an army of caterers will satisfy hungry stomachs and thirsty throats. It goes without saying that Harley-Davidson will be presenting its latest machines, which can also be test ridden free of charge and without obligation.
As befits a genuine H-D event, a cool custom bike show will provide plenty to talk about. Numerous individual conversions will face the public and the eyes of a strict jury. The plans naturally also include a large motorcycle parade along the most beautiful roads of the fascinating Sauerland region. This will show that Willingen is the perfect starting point for motorcycle tours through the region. This is also underlined by eight ready-made suggestions for motorcycle tours on the festival website. And anyone who really doesn't want to miss a single highlight can simply choose one of the tours led by local bikers.
On Wednesday, July 8, the event kicks off with live music and great side events from local vendors in the center of Willingen. On Thursday, the event continues with the Dealer and Friends Party, where everyone is welcome, before the main program runs from Friday to Sunday. Sunday is planned as a family day. There are of course plenty of accommodation options - from campgrounds and guesthouses to hotels - directly on site. Information on this and everything you need to know can be found on the official festival website bike-days-willingen.de. And if you would like to find out more about the namesake Harley-Davidson, you will find a wealth of knowledge at H-D.com.
