Ireland BikeFest 2025 has just concluded, with Killarney hosting hundreds of motorcycle enthusiasts throughout the weekend, with the Bike Village at the Gleneagle buzzing with energy.
Now in its 17th year, Ireland BikeFest has established itself as a premier international festival for motorcyclists.
The festival unites bikers from around the world to relish and explore one of Europe’s favored riding destinations and events in a singular experience.
Festival highlights included a lively carnival atmosphere, a stellar lineup of music and entertainment, demo rides, a custom bike showcase, and ride-outs along the Ring of Kerry and the Wild Atlantic Way coastline.
Among the weekend’s favorites was the Sunday parade of bikers, led by grand marshal and singer, Jimmy Buckley, who directed the motorcycle tour from Gleneagle along Muckross Road and Woodlawn, traversing Park Road before touring the town with streets filled with joyful bystanders.
