MUNICH: BMW Motorrad Days 2021 is not happening as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to wreak havoc in Europe and around the world.
This would be the second year in a row that the global customer event had to be cancelled. BMW Motorrad said it expects the event to resume in July 2022.
For many years, the BMW Motorrad Days have been one of the largest customer events of the BMW Group with a large number of guests from all over the world.
The BMW Motorrad Days organiser said in a statement that "the current circumstances and the associated enormous planning uncertainties no longer allow this highly internationally oriented event to be planned as the necessary lead times involved are very long."
"Our early cancellation will moreover make planning easier for our many overseas visitors, knowing they have longer lead times for logistics and travel arrangements."
This year's event was planned to take place in Berlin in the place where BMW motorcycles have been built for more than 50 years.
It had been held for 18 years in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a ski town in Germany's Bavaria region. The tradition-steeped event began in 2001 as the BMW Motorrad Biker Meeting in Seefeld, Austria.
