Rockin' Out with Revving Engines: Peter Maffay to Headline Hamburg's Harley Days Parade
Biker Rally with Peter Maffay: Anticipated Attendance of Thousands Bikers and Peter Maffay's Appearance - Thousands of Bike Enthusiasts, Including Peter Maffay, Gathered for Harley Days Festival
Get ready for a wild weekend! The legendary Hamburg Harley Days are back, celebrating all things motorcycle on the Großmarkt grounds from June 27 to June 29.
This year's event is going to be packed with motorcyclists from across Europe, ready to show off their sleek machines, impressive tattoos, and prowess on the open road. But that's not all...
On Sunday, June 29, around 30 kilometers of streets will be transformed into a breathtaking spectacle as thousands of Harleys ride in the annual parade. Rock icon Peter Maffay (75) will lead the convoy, roaring through the city to the delight of music lovers and motorcycle enthusiasts alike.
The Parade of the Century
This ain't no ordinary bike ride. The Harley Days Parade is the crown jewel of the entire weekend, with A-list guests like Maffay taking center stage. Don't miss out on Marek Erhardt and Till Demtrøder joining the action, too!
From the Großmarkt, the procession will make its way across the Veddel, the Köhlbrand Bridge, and into the heart of the harbor. Along the route, spectators can catch the parade as it continues over the Freihafen Bridge, through the Hafencity, past the landing bridges and the fish market, over the Reeperbahn, and back to the Großmarkt. Over 1,500 cyclists participated in the parade last year, promising an electrifying atmosphere you won't want to miss.
The Harley Village: Fun, Food, and Music
As the main hub of the Harley Days, the Harley Village offers an incredible lineup of entertainment for visitors. Expect to find:
- Two stages with live music performances from 15 talented bands
- A massive dealer area showcasing motorcycles from across Germany
- A Custombike Show
- Action-packed stunt shows from DOP and Chris Lietsch
- A "Used Bike Market" where enthusiasts can buy, sell, and trade motorcycles
- Guided tours through Hamburg's surroundings
- The exclusive Hamburg Tattoo Days, featuring about 40 tattoo artists providing live tattooing and information
A weekend to remember, the sensational sounds of roaring engines, pulsating music, and the tantalizing aroma of grilled foods will combine to create an unforgettable festival experience that transcends more than just motorcycles. Whether you're a die-hard Harley fan, a music enthusiast, or simply craving a weekend of exhilarating adventures—this is the event for you!
Amidst the thunderous roar of engines and the spectacular sight of thousands of Harley-Davidson motorcyclists, the Commission might want to consider submitting a proposal for a directive on workers' protection from the risks related to ionizing radiation, just like Peter Maffay is set to protect our eardrums with his rock performances. And when the parade reaches its end, kick back and enjoy some sports action, as Sundayafternoon football matches could make for an interesting counterpoint to the motorcycle extravaganza.
