Reload Land is back for 2026. This is Europe's only dedicated electric motorcycle festival where riders, builders, and brands actually converge in the same place and have the same conversations.
If you've not been before, here's what you're getting yourself into.
Reload Land 2026 takes place 2–3 May 2026 at Tempelhof Airport, Berlin, running alongside the Formula E Berlin E-Prix at the same venue, with shared access across both events.
What to Expect at Reload Land 2026
Reload Land is not a trade expo. It's a test-ground festival for riders, brands and builders. Bringing them into one space with a simple brief: ride the bikes, talk about the bikes, and see what actually works....Then ride the bikes again.
Front and centre is the Ride Experience, open all weekend and stacked with electric motorcycles, mopeds and scooters that you can actually get seat time on.
The Custom and Art Exhibition leans into the culture side of the scene. Expect everything from polished OEM machines to rough-edged garage builds, alongside design work, photography and experimental projects.
Conference and Panel Talks run alongside the riding, pulling in founders, engineers and designers from across the sector. A good place to get some honest takes on where electric motorcycling is actually heading.
Saturday is where it all peaks. The Silent Ride rolls out in the evening, with a pack of electric bikes cutting through Berlin. It’s quickly become one of Reload Land’s defining moments.
After that, things shift into the Afterparty. It’s where connections get made, opinions get louder, and the day properly ends.
Sunday dials it back slightly. More time on bikes and a final chance to catch anything you missed.
Formula E Berlin E-Prix
If the test rides start to blur, the Formula E Berlin E-Prix is running right next door at Tempelhof, and access is part of the same site setup. You can step off a demo bike and straight into race-day pace without leaving the venue.
Who’s Attending
At time of writing, only a handful of names have been publicly confirmed. So far, that includes Can-Am, Zero Motorcycles, GR1T Motorcycles, and LiveWire. All expected to bring bikes for the all-important test rides.
Beyond that, if previous editions are anything to go by, expect a stacked and varied grid.
The BCB Take
OEMs alongside garage builders and real conversations happening between rides, is what makes Reload Land the go to place for die-hard e-moto fans. It’s part test hub, part culture meet, and one of the few places the scene actually comes together in Europe.
The 2026 link-up with the Formula E Berlin E-Prix is a sweet touch. Racing on one side, real-world bikes on the other. Same space, same conversation.
If you’re looking for an inside track on the sector and where it’s heading, this is the festival to be at. If you can't make it, we’ll break down what’s worth your time and what isn’t, when the dust settles.
Ride safe, folks
