2026 BMW Demo Tour to visit 37 locations across the UK and Ireland
BMW Motorrad UK has confirmed the 2026 Demo Tour will be its most comprehensive to date.
BMW is set to visit locations across the UK and Ireland as part of its “most comprehensive” Demo Tour yet, which will include 37 different stops.
The tour will begin at Wollaston Motorrad in Wolverhampton, on 21 March, before eventually finishing towards the end of September. There will be visits to Scotland and Wales, as well as many other locations across England, too.
The tour will also head to Northern Ireland with a stop in Belfast. Additionally, the tour will head to Ireland, although the location has not yet been confirmed.
The route will also feature newly appointed BMW sites introduced over the last six months, including Group 1 Norwich, Sytner Cardiff, Lloyd Blackpool, and Barretts Canterbury. Furthermore, BMW says “soon to be announced showrooms” will also be included.
Up to 20 motorcycles will be available to ride, with the ever-popular R1300 GS and R1300 GS Adventure both included. Other models such as the F900 GS (Enduro Pack), F900 R, R1300 R, S1000 RR and the M1000 XR will also be available.
If you have two years or more of experience, then you will be eligible to ride any of the models mentioned above. But if you have less than 24 months of riding experience, then you will be restricted in what models you can ride.
For example, if you have less than 24 months of experience you will be able to ride motorcycles such as the F900 R, F900 GS (Enduro Pack), F800 GS, or the R12 G/S.
According to BMW, the new F 450 GS will also become part of the line-up of bikes ready to test ride.
Scott Grimsdall, Head of Marketing and PR at BMW Motorrad UK, said this about the 2026 Demo Tour:
“The 2026 BMW Motorrad Demo Tour is our most ambitious yet, with 37 stops across the UK and Ireland, bringing the BMW Motorrad experience directly to riders. From first-time test rides with the BMW Motorrad brand to discovering the latest innovations, it’s an opportunity to meet our expert teams, explore the range and connect with the wider BMW Motorrad community in a welcoming and relaxed environment.”
