AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days is one of the most anticipated annual gatherings for motorcycle enthusiasts, especially fans of classic and historic bikes. Organized by the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA), this three-day summer festival celebrates the rich heritage of motorcycling with something for everyone who loves vintage two-wheeled machines.

Held each year at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio, Vintage Motorcycle Days draws thousands of riders, collectors, and fans from across the United States and around the world. The sprawling venue provides the perfect backdrop for a weekend full of racing, swapping, shows, seminars, and social activities.

The 2026 event is set for July 24–26, 2026, with gates opening early each day for general admission and infield displays. Over the course of the weekend, attendees can experience national championship vintage racing in multiple disciplines — including road racing, motocross, hare scrambles, trials, and flat track — featuring classic machines restored and raced by passionate riders.

One of the event’s standout features is North America’s largest vintage motorcycle swap meet, covering nearly 80 acres with more than 800 vendors offering bikes, parts, memorabilia, accessories, and more. Whether you’re hunting for a rare component or just browsing decades of motorcycle history, the swap meet is a must-see.

Beyond racing and the swap meet, Vintage Motorcycle Days also includes bike shows, demo rides, informational seminars, period-focused entertainment, and community gatherings that foster camaraderie among riders old and new. All proceeds benefit the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame, helping preserve motorcycle history and culture for future generations.

In short, Vintage Motorcycle Days is a must-attend event for classic bike lovers, blending competition, culture, and community into one unforgettable weekend.
