DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The 34^th annual Biketoberfest® motorcycle rally in the Daytona Beach area and Volusia County on Oct. 15-18 will be a part of the 2026 AMA National Gypsy Tour. It's the third consecutive year that the popular rally has been a part of the Gypsy Tour.

With more than 100 years of history, the AMA National Gypsy Tour is a celebration of the freedom and camaraderie of motorcycling. With 14 total events in 2026 aimed at bringing like-minded riders together, the AMA National Gypsy Tour is one of the longest-running motorcycle series in the country. At each individual event, AMA members can collect official AMA National Gypsy Tour pins to show they attended.

AMA Gypsy Tour pins, as well as other materials that highlight the history of the AMA and American motorcycling, will be distributed at the Daytona Beach Area Convention and Visitors Bureau's Official Biketoberfest® Welcome Center located trackside at Daytona International Speedway's Fall Cycle Scene display area.

"There's a reason the AMA National Gypsy Tour has lasted over a hundred years — it's built on that same sense of freedom and camaraderie that brings riders to Daytona Beach every fall," said AMA Director of Marketing & Communications Joy Burgess. "For three years running, Biketoberfest has brought our riders into one of the most iconic gathering places in motorcycling, and we couldn't be prouder to have it as part of a tradition that's carried riders together for more than a century."

"We're excited to once again have Biketoberfest® included on the AMA Gypsy Tour schedule and to continue our partnership with the American Motorcyclist Association," said Lori Campbell Baker, Executive Director for the Daytona Beach Area Convention & Visitors Bureau. "Biketoberfest® is a fall tradition in the Daytona Beach area and Volusia County, bringing riders together to enjoy our scenic roads, live music, bike shows, and beautiful Florida weather. We look forward to welcoming motorcycle enthusiasts to the destination for another memorable four days in 2026."
