VELOBerlin – The Bicycle Festival

The 2025 edition confirmed VELOBerlin as a central event for the German cycling scene. The focus was on sustainable mobility, e-cargo, bikepacking, and Berlin's transport policy. Exhibitors such as Specialized, Pelago, Sportsnut, or Lion Bikes used the industrial architecture of the Tempelhof Hangar for large-scale presentations. The five test tracks on the adjacent Tempelhofer Feld allowed for test rides on asphalt, gravel, and off-road settings.

The event was politically supported by panels with representatives from the Senate and the House of Representatives on Berlin's cycling infrastructure. The VELOFamily program, as usual, attracted many families – with BMX demos, children's music, and a dedicated test setup for children's bikes.
