The organisers of the major event for the European trade have confirmed the date for next year’s show – the 32nd edition will take place in Frankfurt from Wednesday, 3rd July to Sunday, 7th July, 2024.
Once again taking place as a combined industry and consumer event, the opening three days will be reserved for trade visitors, before the festival-like weekend kicks off from the 6th-7th July.
Next year’s show will feature a host of events, races, and participation riding for visitors.
Stefan Reisinger, managing director of Eurobike organiser Fairnamic said: “The new Eurobike in Frankfurt is growing, has the wind at its back and the task to provide orientation and reliable planning to the international bicycle and light electric vehicle industry.”
“2024 will be an eventful year including major sporting events such as the Olympic Games in Paris or the European Football Championship in Germany. So, apart from the availability of the Frankfurt trade fair grounds, these factors had to be taken into account as well when scheduling Eurobike.”
