Motorbikes thunder into Daventry for legendary bike festival

Town alive with noise and colour

Motorcycles of all shapes and sizes thundered into Daventry town centre at the weekend for the return of a legendary festival.

Families flocked to Daventry Motorcycle Festival for a free day of bikes, live-music, entertainment, stunt show and children's entertainment.

Saturday’s event kicked off with an impressive mass ride-in from Daventry Town Football Club, helped by a team of volunteers.

Treasurer Danny Bateman said: “What a fantastic day. We had brilliant weather, one of the largest turnouts we've ever had and some amazing performances and activities to keep the crowds young - and not so young - entertained throughout the day.

“All in all, it was a very successful event thanks not just to those who took part and our sponsors, but also everyone who attended; roll on DMF 2023!”

Bands including 2nd Hand Daylight and Dead Frequency entertained the crowds.
