Motorcycles find their place at 2024 Rétromobile
In 2024 Rétromobile will set aside space for a dedicated motorcycle display area complete with manufacturers and accessory dealers.
Paris France - Rétromobile has always played host to motorbike manufacturers, dealers specialising in vintage motorbikes, auctions and exhibitions featuring some of the finest machines of the 20th century. At the next edition, no less than 2,000 sqm. will be devoted exclusively to two-wheelers, bringing together manufacturers and accessory dealers loyal to the event, but also welcoming newcomers. This area will be located at the heart of the exhibition, in hall 2.2 near the Artcurial stand, and will feature an exclusive motorbike display.
But that's not all: a leading name in British motorcycling culture will be the figurehead of this space: Ace Café. The famous restaurant and bar will be bringing its inimitable atmosphere, menu, bar, juke boxes and official store to Paris for the occasion. Mike Wilsmore, the director and iconic figure of this London institution, will also be on hand to tell visitors stories and answer their questions over a cup of tea!
A number of well-known manufacturers will also be out in force in this authentic venue dedicated to two-wheelers and their enthusiasts. Among the first to confirm their presence are exceptional brands such as BMW Motorrad, Ducati, Harley-Davidson, Indian Motorcycle and Yamaha.
"At Rétromobile, we love all classic vehicles, including of course motorbikes, which have also left their mark on the history of motoring. This passion is shared by at least 29% of our collector visitors who already own vintage motorbikes. The success of the retrospective dedicated to the centenary of the French Dollar brand, which received much acclaim at our 2023 show, persuaded us to bring together everyone involved in the two-wheeled world in the same area and give them a prominent place in future editions. As with the rest of the exhibition, the two watchwords will be passion and conviviality," comments Romain Grabowski, Director of Rétromobile.
