Welcome to the EUROPEAN CUSTOMBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP!

Once again this year, hundreds of custombikes from all over Europe will be competing to win one of the coveted trophies in 15 categories. In addition to certificates and trophies, there is prize money totalling 12,000 euros!
In addition to fierce competition, all participants can look forward to free entry, surprise packages, a big after-show party and a trade fair weekend with tens of thousands of custom maniacs and spectacular motorbikes in four exhibition halls. Since its inception, the CUSTOMBIKE Show has not only developed into the largest trade fair for motorbike customising worldwide, but is also the host of the continent’s largest bike show, which is held as the European Championship.
Since the show’s inception, there have been winners from Scandinavia to Slovenia and from Belarus to Portugal. However, customisers from the rest of the world are of course also welcome at the European Custombike Championship.

We are looking forward to a great motorbike festival!
