Leeds, AL – February 12, 2025 – BMW Motorrad USA has officially announced the return of BMW Motorrad Days Americas for its third year, once again taking place alongside the legendary Barber Vintage Festival.

The Barber Vintage Festival, one of the world’s largest celebrations of vintage motorcycles, draws over 80,000 spectators annually.

“The first BMW Motorrad Days Americas in 2023 was such an overwhelming success, it just had to continue. We are looking to make it bigger and better than ever for 2025,” said Kevin Philips, Head of BMW Motorrad for the Americas. “The Barber Museum, the racetrack, and the amazing hospitality of Birmingham, AL, guarantee an unforgettable experience. Whether you’re an active rider or just love motorcycles, we invite everyone to join us this October.”

A Legacy of BMW Motorrad Days

BMW Motorrad Days has been an essential part of the global motorcycle community for over 20 years, originally starting as the BMW Motorrad Biker Meeting in Seefeld, Austria, in 2001. The event quickly moved to Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Bavaria, solidifying its reputation as the go-to gathering for BMW riders from around the world.

The American edition of the event debuted in 2023, and with BMW Motorrad’s continued sponsorship of the Barber Vintage Festival, it’s clear that this stateside tradition is here to stay.
