The FSA Bike Festival Riva del Garda, which for over 30 years has been the meeting point for off-road cycling enthusiasts, is ready to return with a rich calendar of events and activities in a completely unique new location, which will host the extensive Expo area along the lake shores.

The official inauguration is set for May 1st at 11:00 AM, on the main stage of the exhibition area, and the day's agenda also includes the Bike Festival Awards ceremony, where the best bikes in the MTB Fully, E-MTB Fully, and Gravel categories will be awarded, along with a special prize for the most innovative bike. In the evening, the festival will light up on the beach in front of Miralago Park with Red Bull Summer Vibes.

The second day will be dedicated to the MAXXIS Gravel Garda Trentino and the Bosch eMTB Challenge, while Saturday, May 3rd will be the time for the legendary Bike Marathon. At the starting line, in addition to hundreds of amateur bikers, numerous Elite athletes are expected to compete for valuable UCI points. Also on Saturday, the eBike Marathon will take place, a non-competitive race for all eMTB enthusiasts. The third day's program concludes with the Open Night and Bike Festival Party. On Sunday, May 4th, the spotlight will be on the younger participants with the Scott Junior Trophy, which will close the festival's competitions.

During the four days of FSA Bike Festival Riva del Garda, over 1,500 bikes will be available for testing, including mountain bikes, e-bikes, gravel, and other models. Among the brands present in the exhibition area are important companies in the sector, including Bosch, Scott, Bianchi, Corratec, Cube, Merida, and Specialized. The bikes can be tested on three routes: BF Test Trail – Easy, BF Test Trail – Brione, and Expo Area Test Trail.

Each day, participants can join four guided tours powered by Mmove to explore the Garda Trentino landscapes. For those looking to improve their technique, an MTB School will be available inside the brand-new Skill Park Busatte. There will be no shortage of adrenaline-pumping exhibitions with SICK! Show powered by Bikeflip Marketplace, and relaxation moments with Yoga for Bikers guided by Timo Pritzel.

In the Talk Area, next to the main stage, current topics in the world of cycling will be discussed: innovation, accessibility, sustainability, and more (product presentations) with the participation of experts and athletes.

Great news for the little ones, with three areas dedicated to children and young people: AGS Nature Playground, Little Riders Zone, and Hopper Jump & Wild Wheels, where they can have fun on tracks designed specifically for them.

Finally, FSA Bike Festival Riva del Garda will also showcase local gastronomy, thanks to local associations and companies that will offer the best regional specialties, including vegetarian options: not to be missed is the festival's official dish created by Michelin-starred chef Peter Brunel.
