About Moto Experience Marche

Moto Experience Marche is the most anticipated free motorcycle event in the Marche region: a spring weekend dedicated to the world of two wheels in the evocative setting of the Antica Fabbrica Laterizi - Fornace Hoffmann in Serra de' Conti, in the province of Ancona. Test rides with the latest models from major brands, riding courses, trial demonstrations, inclusive motorcycle therapy, vintage motorcycle expo, food stands, and live music animate a unique industrial archaeology complex. An event that has grown in just a few years to attract thousands of enthusiasts.

A gathering within the walls of Fornace Hoffmann

Every spring, the Municipality of Serra de' Conti, in the heart of Vallesina in the province of Ancona, transforms into the Marche region's capital of two wheels with Moto Experience Marche. The event takes place inside the Antica Fabbrica Laterizi - Fornace Hoffmann, a fascinating industrial archaeology complex spanning over fifteen thousand square meters, restored and returned to the community: an unusual and powerful backdrop for an event dedicated to motorcycling.

From a local gathering to a reference event

Born as a small gathering, Moto Experience Marche has grown exponentially, from around a thousand attendees at the first edition to thousands of visitors in recent years. Today, it is one of the most followed free motorcycle events in the region, capable of combining the passion for motorcycles with the discovery of the Val Mivola territory, between the Misa and Nevola valleys.

What to do at Moto Experience

The program is rich and designed for enthusiasts of all levels, as well as families and the curious:

  • Free test rides with the latest models from major brands, from local dealerships
  • On-road and off-road riding courses, technical masterclasses on suspension and maintenance
  • Trial demonstrations and acrobatic exhibitions
  • Inclusive motorcycle therapy, an experience dedicated to bringing emotions to people with disabilities
  • Exhibition of vintage motorcycles and cars, demonstrations by Vespa Clubs
  • Market exhibition of clothing and accessories, food stands, and live music

Art and territory

In addition to the sporting aspect, the event aims to enhance the identity of the village and the Marche region. The 2026 edition inaugurated a monumental sculptural work inspired by the philosophy of Michelangelo Pistoletto and his Third Paradise, subsequently donated to the Municipality of Serra de' Conti as a permanent symbol of a new "zero point" for motorcycle tourism in the Marche. A combination of mechanical tradition, contemporary art, and territorial promotion that makes Moto Experience Marche an event different from the usual gatherings.

Moto Experience Marche — edition 2026

The 4th edition of Moto Experience Marche took place on Saturday, April 18, and Sunday, April 19, 2026, at the Fornace Hoffmann in Serra de' Conti, featuring two days of test rides, riding courses, trial, motorcycle therapy, vintage expo, food stands, and on Saturday evening, a tribute concert to Vasco Rossi and the inauguration of a sculpture inspired by Pistoletto.

The fourth edition of Moto Experience Marche confirmed the event's growth, animating the Antica Fabbrica Laterizi in Serra de' Conti for two days. Alongside free test rides with over twenty brands, the program offered on-road and off-road riding courses, trial demonstrations, inclusive motorcycle therapy sessions, and exhibitions by Vespa Clubs. A symbolic moment of the edition was the inauguration of a monumental sculpture inspired by Michelangelo Pistoletto's Third Paradise, subsequently donated to the Municipality. Saturday evening concluded with a tribute concert to Vasco Rossi and a DJ set.
