The BMF Show, May 17-18

The BMF Show takes place at the East of England Showground in Peterborough on May 17-18, and this is where you can find all the information you’ll need to have the best time at the show, or see what you’re missing.

We’ve got the details, pictures, results, news and highlights from the show, as well as routes to get to Peterborough, locations of speed cameras, and even weather reports.

This is the 42nd year of the event, and organisers are hoping over 100,000 people will attend for the first time in its history.

Attractions include almost 1000 trade stalls and some of the country’s largest retailers. There’s always lots of kit at bargain prices, and we’ll let you know about some of the examples.

Big screens will show the World Superbikes from Monza on Sunday, and Saturday’s FA Cup football final, plus in the main arena you’ll be able to watch moped racing, vintage speedway, a motocross long jump competition and stunt riding demonstrations, as well as freefall parachute and aerobatic displays.

You’ll also be able to wander round static displays of amazing performance, custom, vintage and streetfighter machines being judged for class and show winners, or indulge in some excitement with rock climbing, bungee trampolining, bike simulators, tethered hot air balloons, and kids quads and go-karts.

The Show runs 9am-5pm. It’s £13 for adults (£11 BMF members), £5 senior citizens, accompanied under-14s free.
