The venue is the legendary Brooklands Museum in Weybridge, Surrey, home to the world&#8217;s first purpose-built motor racing circuit, opened in 1907. Over three days, motorsport heritage, American culture, and the passion for two wheels merge into a festival that welcomes Indian riders and bikers of all brands alike.<\/p>\n<h2>Programme and Highlights<\/h2>\n<p>Gates open on Friday, 28 August, at 5:00 PM. The evening kicks off with authentic American-style BBQ, racing simulator access, exclusive late openings of the historic Brooklands Motor Sheds, and guided Concorde tours. A live saxophonist sets the mood from 5 PM, while Indian Motorcycle Riding Groups (IMRG) enjoy reserved VIP parking.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday delivers the main event: bacon and coffee welcome, American BBQ, a complimentary ice cream truck, talks from Indian&#8217;s chief designer Ola Steneg\u00e4rd and special VIP guests, trade stalls, wheelie machines, and live bands playing until 11 PM. The King of the Baggers race bike takes pride of place alongside custom bike competitions and shows. The highlight: visitors can run their own bikes up the historic Brooklands track and capture photos beneath Concorde.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, the rally transitions into Brooklands America Day \u2013 a tribute to American automotive culture with Muscle Cars, Hot Rods, Mustangs, Dodges, Chevrolets, and stars-and-stripes entertainment. Rally ticket holders retain full access.<\/p>\n<h2>Organisers and Background<\/h2>\n<p>The rally is organised by Indian Motorcycle UK together with Indian Motorcycle Reading. The IMR UK National Rally is the annual flagship event for the Indian Motorcycle Riders (IMR) community in the UK. In 2026, the event is dedicated to the brand&#8217;s 125th anniversary \u2013 from its founding in 1901 in Springfield, Massachusetts, through legendary racing victories to today&#8217;s model line-up.<\/p>\n<h2>Camping and Getting There<\/h2>\n<p>Off-site camping with a free shuttle service is available. Secure on-site motorcycle parking is provided. Brooklands Museum is located on Brooklands Road in Weybridge, Surrey (KT13 0QN), easily accessible via the M25 and M3.
