Bristol Bike Nights returns as Fowlers celebrates centenary anniversary
Bristol Bike Nights returns this May as Fowlers gears up to celebrate its 100th anniversary.
The popular Bristol Bike Nights event, which takes place on the first Friday of each month between May and September, is set to celebrate Fowlers’ 100th anniversary in 2026.
Bristol Bike Nights has become a popular event for riders across the South West region and beyond in recent years. It’s known for welcoming bikes and scooters of all sizes, and each event is held in the dealership’s car park. The 2026 event is expected to feature a range of superbikes, retros, customs, adventure bikes, scooters, and more.
To celebrate Fowlers turning 100-years-old, special touches and celebratory moments will be woven throughout the season. Additionally, the ‘Bike of the Night’ competition is also back for 2026, with judges set to choose their standout machine at each event.
Winners will take home a prize, a trophy, and a spot in September’s final, where one of the weekly winners will be crowned ‘Bike of the Season’. Last year’s top honour went to a Suzuki RGV250.
A wide range of local clubs, charities, and organisations will also be in attendance throughout this year’s ‘Bike Nights’ season, including Bristol Advanced Motorcyclists, DocBike, Mental Health Motorbikes, Blood Bikes, and the TRF, alongside several kit specialists.
Photographers Drop4Gear will be on site to capture all the action and atmosphere, while images of the event and the different bikes will be available to view and download via the Fowlers Facebook page.
A free raffle will be available at every event, with a range of bike-themed prizes up for grabs, including limited-edition ‘Fowlers 100’ t-shirts. Visitors will also be able to enjoy food and drinks at each event.
The 2026 Bristol Bike Nights gets underway on 1 May, before heading back to Fowlers on Friday, 5 June. The event continues on 3 July, before finishing on Friday, 7 August.
