European Bike Week 2026 – Bikes, freedom & Lake Wörthersee

From September 8 to 13, 2026, things will get loud at Lake Wörthersee: the European Bike Week brings tens of thousands of motorcycles, live music, shows and a real sense of freedom to Carinthia. The cult event is one of the largest motorcycle gatherings in Europe – and is a must for Harley fans and all those who celebrate the biker lifestyle. The main event location is Lake Faak, which is just a 15-minute drive from Velden.

Freedom on two wheels

Whether Harley, chopper, vintage or custom bike – every machine is welcome. All around the lake await you:
