The Festival is a 10 day celebration of bikes and the people who love to ride them: It's all about the bike...and more!
It is packed with events for both weekend warriors and hardened pros. Whether you're a cross country rider, downhiller, freerider, roadie or a bit of all four - this Festival has something for you.
Below is a random selection of events during the 10 day celebration, but just go the the full Festival programme page, or pick a day, and you're sure to find something which takes your fancy.
With over 25 events from films, to concerts, photography competition, social rides, ladies rides, kids rides, fun races and down-to-business races - it's all biking all the time, just the way we like it.
Queenstown has more than 110kms of established cross country trails, a gondola serviced bike park, world class road rides and more restaurants, bars, wineries and places to stay than you can think of.
All that's missing is you...
