European Bike Week 2026 – bikes, freedom & that Lake Wörthersee feeling

From September 8 to 13, 2026, Lake Wörthersee will once again be the stage for one of Europe’s biggest motorcycle gatherings: the European Bike Week. Tens of thousands of bikes, live music, shows and a real sense of freedom will transform Carinthia into an international biker mecca. The cult event is a must for Harley fans, custom enthusiasts and all those who live and celebrate the biker lifestyle.
