What is IBF?
The Italian Bike Festival is an international event dedicated to cycling and sustainable mobility. It is held annually at the Misano World Circuit and brings together more than 600 brands from the cycling industry.
During the three days of festival, innovations, trends and bike tests are presented. There are also competitions for different types of cyclists, as well as workshops and round tables on cycle tourism and sustainable mobility.
In the end, it is a key meeting point for consumers, professionals and the cycling media.
The 2024 edition of the Italian Bike Festival will be held on September 13th, 14th and 15th.
It is also a free event, subject to registration.
Activities at the Italian Bike Festival
In addition to the exhibition area, where some brands such as AURUM will exhibit their bikes, there are many other activities for visitors to be part of the immersive experience that is the festival. We will tell you some of them!
Test Bike
One of the most important areas of the festival is the Test Bike area. Some of the exhibitors will allow users to test some of their bikes, so the festival has included two dedicated tracks for visitors to test the best bikes from different brands, such as AURUM.
Yamaha Off-Road Arena
The Yamaha Off-Road Arena is another cycling area, specializing in MTB, EMTB, cyclocross and gravel events. It is a circuit that simulates a route with obstacles and curves so that visitors can get an idea of what these types of events can be like in reality.
Campagnolo Road Circuit
The Campagnolo area includes a track where road bikes can be tested, so that visitors can learn first-hand about the performance of the different road bikes, such as resistance or aerodynamics.
Other activities
In addition to these, there are other activities within the festival, perfect for all audiences. One of them is “La Carica Delle Grazielle”, a 35-kilometer fun ride to an aperitif by the sea; or Skills Pump Track, a track designed for BMX and cyclocross, with a track open to everyone.
Conferences and talks
Another highlight of the Italian Bike Festival are the conferences and talks that are scheduled during the weekend. Discover the different conferences that you can visit on the Italian Bike Festival website.
AURUM at the Italian Bike Festival
The AURUM team will be exhibiting the AURUM MANTO, with which we have competed in Badlands 2024, during the festival, and Ivan Basso will be there too.
In addition, we are one of the brands that will allow the testing of the bike on the dedicated tracks.
