“The 2019 bike fest is set to be bigger and better than previous years, with a full programme line-up that includes great music, incredible stunts, extreme sports, food and drinks,” said event organiser Vicky Wentzel. “All the action will take place along the palm-fringed beachfront boulevard, and we’ve ensured a really diverse festival programme that caters to all tastes.”
Visitors can look forward to, among other things:
* Entertainment on the main beach stage and village pier rock stage
* Six beachfront boulevard-themed bars
* Street busking entertainment
* Demo rides
* Village market and expo zones
