1000 Bikes Revival

1000 Bikes Revival

The 1000 Bikes Revival is set to take place at Mallory Park Circuit on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th July 2026. This event marks a significant milestone in British motorcycling history, serving as the centrepiece for the circuit’s 70th Anniversary celebrations. Organised by Live Promotions in partnership with the circuit, the Revival seeks to recapture the magic of the legendary Festival of 1000 Bikes, an event that was a staple for enthusiasts for decades.

A Legacy Revived

Mallory Park, often referred to as the “Friendly Circuit,” has a storied history of hosting some of the most exciting motorcycle races in the UK. The 1000 Bikes Revival is more than just a race meeting; it is a celebration of the passion, power, and community that have defined the venue since its inception. By reviving this classic festival format, the organisers are creating an all-action weekend that bridges the gap between the golden era of motorcycling and its modern future.

High-Octane Track Action

The weekend features a packed programme of feature races and parades designed to thrill spectators. Key highlights on the track include:

• Classic Race of the Year & Master of Mallory: A special celebration race featuring star riders and iconic machines that have shaped the history of the circuit.

• Barry Sheene 50th Anniversary Tribute: A dedicated tribute to Barry Sheene and the Suzuki RG500, marking 50 years since their first GP500 World Championship title.

• Grand Prix & Formula Two-Stroke Frenzy: High-speed racing action focusing on the unique sound and performance of two-stroke machinery.

• Road & Race Parades: A chance for owners to showcase their own motorcycles on the track, placing private collections in the heart of the action.

Beyond the Tarmac

The event is designed to be inclusive for both hardcore enthusiasts and families, with a vast array of off-track entertainment. The paddock and surrounding areas will be transformed into a festival of all things two-wheeled:

• Off-Road Displays: Visitors to 1000 Bikes Revival can watch Dirt Track Racing and Trials Demonstrations, showcasing different disciplines of bike control.

• Exhibitions & Clubs: Extensive displays from Classic, Vintage, and Manufacturer Clubs will be on show, alongside a Classic and Vintage Race Bike Show.

• Youth Engagement: The “Mallor-E MX” track will host Youth Electric Racing, highlighting the next generation of riders.

• Festival Atmosphere: The site will feature a Street Food Village, Trade Stands, a Retail Village, a Children’s Fun Fair, and live music to keep the energy high throughout the weekend.

A Community Celebration

With camping available on-site, the 1000 Bikes Revival encourages visitors to make a full weekend of the experience. Evening entertainment and meet-and-greet sessions with legends of the sport provide opportunities for fans to connect with their heroes. Whether you are there to see the historic GP machines scream around the hairpin or to enjoy a “brew” while browsing the trade stands, the event promises to be a landmark occasion for the 2026 motorcycling calendar.
