Rosemary and I attended Ludgershall bike night. How such a small village puts on this popular event every year, beggars belief. It is extremely popular, runs from 6pm to 9pm and attracts bikers from all over. We hear of bikers coming from more than 100 miles away.

This year, the splendid weather contributed to a huge turnout. The official count recorded an impressive 1,388 bikes, with an estimated 2,500 people attending the event in this tiny village.

One of the most remarkable aspects of Ludgershall Bike Night is the impeccable atmosphere,being further enhanced by a live band playing an energetic set of classic rock music covers.

Despite the large crowd, there was no trouble reported, and attendees showed great respect for the village, leaving no litter behind. The event is a testament to the community spirit and the mutual respect among the biking fraternity.

The sheer popularity of the night led to some minor logistical challenges. Unfortunately, the queues for the fish and chip vans were horrendous, forcing us to look elsewhere. We happily settled on some delicious spicy food from an Indian stall instead – a welcome alternative! To wash down the meal and quench our thirst, beer was on tap,

Mark your calendars! The next Ludgershall Bike Night is scheduled for Monday 6th July 2026.
