Molfetta's national motorcycle rally featuring scenic tours, the blessing of the helmets, and a traditional Fish Festival.
This edition has not been confirmed by the organiser to date. We recommend checking before going.
The L.A.S.E. Angels National Motorcycle Rally is one of the most anticipated motorcycling events on the Apulian Adriatic coast. Every year, in the heart of September, the Molfetta harbor (Metropolitan City of Bari, Puglia) welcomes hundreds of bikers from all over Italy for a weekend that blends a passion for two wheels, local exploration, and fine food. The event is organized by Motoclub Molfetta ASD, a historic local association that brings enthusiasts of all ages together at the Molo San Domenico.
The L.A.S.E. Angels is more than just a party: it is an official event for the Italian National Selective Mototourism Championship of the Italian Motorcycling Federation (FMI). This status makes it a popular destination for motorcycle clubs from across the peninsula, who bring their riders to Molfetta to earn points in the standings. Recent editions have seen hundreds of FMI-registered riders and even more overall participants, creating a constant buzz of motorcycles along the quay.
The typical program features guided scenic tours that lead bikers to discover the surroundings: from the Pulo di Molfetta, a spectacular karst sinkhole at the city gates, to the Murgia hinterland, with stops at local sanctuaries and cooperative wineries. It is the rally's way of showcasing Puglia to visitors, combining group riding with landscape discovery.
The social heart of the event is the Fried Fish Festival, held on the Molo San Domenico: freshly fried Adriatic fish served directly at the harbor as evening falls. The dinner then turns into a party with live music, DJ sets, and entertainment that continues until late at night, in an atmosphere where bikers mingle with locals and curious visitors alike.
The second day takes on a more ceremonial tone, with the blessing of the helmets, a guided tour of Molfetta's historic center, and the motorcycle parade through the city streets, followed by final awards for the largest clubs and the riders who traveled the furthest. There is also a charitable component: over the years, the rally has hosted cardiopulmonary resuscitation demonstrations and community donation projects.
The L.A.S.E. Angels Motorcycle Rally is traditionally held in September. The dates for the 2026 edition have not yet been officially announced; it is recommended to follow the channels of the Motoclub Molfetta and the FMI Puglia Regional Committee for the program as soon as it is published.
The L.A.S.E. Angels National Motorcycle Rally returns to Molfetta in 2026 for a new edition. Official dates and the detailed program have not yet been announced: the event is usually held in September and will be confirmed by the Motoclub Molfetta ASD and the FMI Puglia Regional Committee in the weeks leading up to the event.
As in previous years, the rally is expected to span two days, with scenic tours in the Apulian hinterland, the Fried Fish Festival on the Molo San Domenico, live music, the blessing of the helmets, and a motorcycle parade through the city. The program will be updated as soon as it is made public.
The rally headquarters is the Molo San Domenico, in the Molfetta harbor (Metropolitan City of Bari). This is the starting point for the scenic tours and the location of the Fish Festival.
