Fowlers' Centenary Sets the Stage for an Unmissable 2026 Season of Bristol Bike Nights
Taking place on the first Friday of every month from May through to September, these much-loved gatherings have become a staple for riders across the South-West and beyond. Bikes and scooters of all shapes, styles, and sizes are welcome, and the event in Fowlers' large car park never fails to impress. Expect an incredible line-up of superbikes, retros, customs, adventure machines, scooters, and everything in between.
This year is especially significant as Fowlers celebrates its 100th anniversary. What better way to mark a century than with a summer packed full of great bikes, great people, and a soundtrack provided by DJ Chunky? Special touches and celebratory moments will be woven throughout the season, making 2026 one to remember.
The ever-popular ‘Bike of the Night’ competition returns, with judges selecting a standout machine at each event. Winners will take home a prize, a trophy, and a coveted spot in September’s grand finale, where one exceptional bike will be crowned ‘Bike of the Season’. Last year’s top honour went to a stunning Suzuki RGV250 - a two-stroke icon that captured the imagination of judges and crowds alike.
Bristol Bike Nights are about more than just machines—they’re a celebration of the biking community. A wide range of local clubs, charities, and organisations will be in attendance throughout the season, including Bristol Advanced Motorcyclists, DocBike, Mental Health Motorbikes, Blood Bikes, and the TRF, alongside kit specialists and other familiar faces.
Visitors can also enjoy freshly prepared food to keep them fuelled for the ride home, while event photographers Drop4Gear capture the atmosphere and action; images will be available to view and download via the Fowlers Facebook page. There’s even a free raffle at every event, with a range of bike-themed prizes up for grabs, including limited edition ‘Fowlers 100’ t-shirts!
