The 2023 event, also held during Barber Vintage Festival, celebrated the 100th anniversary of BMW Motorrad. BMW motorcycle enthusiasts from across the country traveled to Barber Motorsports Park to enjoy the festivities, demo ride BMW motorcycles, and connect with other BMW riders.
“Last year’s celebration of the BMW Motorrad Days Americas at the Barber Vintage Festival was so much fun, there is no way we could not be back,” said Luciana Francisco, head of marketing and product for BMW Motorrad USA. “There is no better community than the global motorcycling community, and we could not ask for a better host than the Barber Vintage Festival. Seeing so many people, from so many different backgrounds, together, celebrating our passion for riding, is truly a special experience.”
The BMW Motorrad Days Americas will include the BMW Motorrad Fan Zone with new and vintage motorcycles, a kid zone, live music, a biergarten, and a great view of vintage racing on the Barber circuit. There will also be on- and off-road demo rides of the newest BMW models, like the R 1300 GS, F 900 GS, R 12, and CE 02.

I’ve never been to Barber I’ve heard many great things looks like I will see you in October coming from Ashtabula OHIO 👍🏻🍻🇺🇸
What kind of accommodations are available, ie campsites, best hotels/motels. I will be coming from Tucson, AZ.
Tucson, huh? I really miss that town and Iron Horse. For accommodations the most comfortable hotel bed I ever experienced was the Hilton Garden in Birmingham, where we stopped on out way down from Virginia. The Museum itself is extraordinary—the building itself is breathtaking; and then you see the cars and motorcycles
Book now and expect opportunistic price increases all over the area. Formerly, I was able to find less expensive accommodations, but not now. It’s worth it though IMHO; it’s the greatest show on earth if you’re a motorcyclist.
