What happens and where
Biketoberfest has no single gate. The bureau’s events page lists outdoor concerts, racing at the speedway, demo rides, bike shows and vendors, and it adds events as venues announce them. The rides the bureau promotes run along A1A, historic Main Street and the Scenic Loop.
- Main Street. One of the rides the bureau promotes and one of two streets it names for event closures, beachside near the Boardwalk and Main Street Pier.
- Midtown. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard is the other street the bureau names for event closures.
- Daytona International Speedway. Home of the Official Welcome Center and the Fall Cycle Scene races.
The Official Welcome Center
The Official Biketoberfest Welcome Center sits trackside in the speedway’s display area at 1801 W. International Speedway Blvd. The bureau says it hands out free posters, pins and poker chips along with area information and visitor guides.
Racing at the speedway: Fall Cycle Scene
Motorcycle racers take to the speedway’s road course for four days of racing with the American SportBike Racing Association (ASRA) and Championship Cup Series (CCS), according to the bureau’s race page. Only infield admission is available. Tickets are sold by Daytona International Speedway, 800-748-7467.
Road closures and Main Street rules
The bureau’s FAQ says the City of Daytona Beach closes streets for rally events and aims to protect them with barriers. During those closures:
- Slingshots (three-wheeled roadsters) are not permitted on Main Street or Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard.
- Trikes and motorcycles with sidecars are allowed on Main Street.
The city had not posted closure times for 2026 when we checked; we will add them here when it does. Check FL511 before you drive.
