The health emergency made it impossible to maintain the original calendar (1-3 May), but Garda Trentino and the German organizers have rescheduled the highly anticipated appointment by two-wheel enthusiasts.
In the current difficult moment due to the COVID-19 epidemic, Garda Trentino is still trying - with realism and a constructive sense - to look beyond the serious international emergency that is revolutionizing the life of Italy and of entire nations, putting all productive sectors, and among these certainly tourism.
The Bike Festival, one of the great sporting spring events in Alto Garda, usually the launching pad of the outdoor season, promises to be one of the first events to signal the "desire to leave again". Together with the German organizers of Delius Klasing, the new date for the event was defined, which should have taken place in Riva del Garda from 1st to 3rd May. The 27th edition of the Bike Festival has been rescheduled from 24 to 26 July 2020.
"We trust that this new date will give us enough space to allow us to better prepare the event and for companies to be able to be protagonists as always in massive numbers - commented Marco Benedetti, President of Garda Trentino SpA - The atmosphere we are living in these days and weeks makes it extremely complicated to look forward with confidence but we know we have to do it, together with all the operators, waiting to see the end of the tunnel. When this emergency is over, the human and economic losses will be enormous: our duty today is to commit ourselves to the utmost to safeguard public health, waiting to return to normality by returning our territory to its loyal visitors ".
