The National Motorcycle Museum in Solihull is hosting Museum Live 2026 on 24 and 25 October. Entry to both the event and the museum is free on both days. Visitors can explore a collection of more than 1,000 British motorcycles and see how their engineering and styling changed across generations.
The programme goes beyond a static display. It includes guided visits, conversations with racers and restorers, motorcycle fire-ups and an indoor parts market. Demo rides on current motorcycles require a full motorcycle licence and suitable riding gear.
The weekend offers a meeting place for people interested in the machines and those who keep them running. The event is open from 8.30am to 5.30pm each day. Motorcycle parking is free, while car parking carries a charge; visitors should check the current programme before travelling.
