In order to ensure the necessary planning reliability for you and as well as us, we are monitoring the situation very closely and are in close and regular exchange with the responsible authorities. We have summarized the most important questions and answers about the measures against Corona as well as conditions for registrations and cancellations of the event.

The first trade fairs are currently opening their doors again as specialist events. There is still a lot of time before the first VELO event in April 2022, but no one can predict the situation for spring 2022 and which conditions will then apply to events like ours.
It is clear that not everything will be the same in spring 2022 either. We are developing the appropriate hygiene concepts in collaboration with the authorities as - very important – we definitely want the VELO festivals to take place! They have become an indispensable part of the bicycle world, an important component in the manufacturers' marketing and sales plans and in the calendar of bicycle fans across Germany.

We look forward to a great, safe and healthy festival season 2022 with you!T
