The bicycle isn’t just a means of transport or a sport: it’s also a way to enjoy unique experiences and discover new places. In Italy, events dedicated to two wheels offer opportunities for every enthusiast, from cycle tourism to sporting competitions, from festivals to specialist trade shows.
Taking part in these events means not only testing yourself on the roads and trails of Italy and the world, but also connecting with a community of enthusiasts, sharing experiences and discovering spectacular routes. Whether you’re an experienced cyclist or a curious beginner, cycling events are a chance to enjoy the bike in an active and original way.
Finding information about upcoming cycling events in Italy isn’t always easy. There are many events spread all over the country, and details on dates, routes and how to take part are often scattered across different websites and channels.
To make things easier, we’ve gathered everything in our cycling events calendar: for each event you’ll find dates, locations and links to the official websites to find out more and sign up, and you can filter by type, from gravel to randonnées, from bikepacking to festivals.
And that’s not all: this year the Events Area returns to the Cycle Tourism Show (Padua, 19-21 March 2027). In 2026, its first edition, it hosted 20 Italian and European events, with stands constantly crowded with visitors.
They included 150 S-Miles, 80 Voglia di Gravel, Abruzzo Trail, Basilicata Bike Trail, Bike and Flavours, Bikeboobs Trail, Chase the Sun, GeoGravel Tuscany, La Diabolica, Le Vie del Latte, Marca Bianca, Megalopolis Gravel Classic, Molise Trail, Monte Grappa Bike Day, Pavè, Pedalata delle Stelle VCO, Shardana Bikeventure, TAP Tutti a Pinerolo, Terre di Pisa Bike Trail, Vesuvio Gravel and Witoor Bike Night.
In 2027 we want to do it again: you’ll be able to meet the event organisers in person, hear about their initiatives and share ideas and routes. All the events at the Show can also be found in the online calendar.
Whether you’re planning a weekend close to home or an adventure in a still-undiscovered corner of the country, we wish you happy riding and plenty of pleasant encounters along the way.
