The city of Bergamo is preparing to return to being the "capital" of e-bikes on the occasion of the first stage of the 9th edition of BikeUP - Electric Bicycle Power Festival, this year also taking place in Turin for the first time. The Orobic appointment, scheduled from 14 to 16 April 2023, promises to be very rich.

The area of more than 10.000 square meters reserved for exhibitors is in fact already sold out, after the official confirmation by 79 brands, including manufacturers of bicycles, scooters and electric cars and operators in the cycle tourism sector, who have decided to participate in the first international fair of the green mobility sector.
Atala, Bergamont, Haibike, Canyon, Decathlon, Ducati, Scott, Specialized, Thok and Trek are just some of the most prestigious names in assisted pedaling which, driven by the influx of visitors (over 2 people in the last 50.000 years) and by the success of past editions of BikeUP, will enliven the historic center of Bergamo. To consolidate the landscape of green mobility there will also be extra e-bike brands, such as Askoll, Niu, VMoto, MV Agusta and Volkswagen. Among the cycling tourism operators there will be, among others, Valdisole, Ente Turismo Langhe Monferrato Roero, Calabria with the Ciclovia dei Parchi and Abruzzo with the Gal Costa dei Trabocchi.
Anticipation is also growing for the absolute debut of BikeUP in Turin, scheduled from 5 to 7 May 2023 within the evocative natural setting of Parco del Valentino. The list of exhibitors for the second stage of BikeUP 2023 is still being defined, but the organizers have already received the confirmations of leading brands in sustainable mobility. Among these, Scott, Atala, Bergamont, Bosch, Decathlon, Ducati, Flyer, Rìese & muller, Thok, Niu and Volkswagen with Rinaldi Spa.
In both locations the exhibitors will set up their stands in the open air and the public will be able to ride all the models on display thanks to the completely free test rides, subject to mandatory online registration. BikeUP 2023 will also involve the public of Bergamo and Turin through numerous moments of insight and entertainment, such as the workshops for the little ones offered in the Banco BPM kids area and the show by Paolo Patrizi, 5-time FCI elite Trial champion.
