WDW 2026

WDW 2026 starts HERE...

 

World Ducati Week 2026

As most of you probably know by now, World Ducati Week 2026 has now been confirmed as Friday 3rd – Sunday 5th July 2026 and the location as per previous years is at Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, see WDW 2026 for current details.

This event has been set to coincide with Ducatis 100th Anniversary so it should be a special one...

At the last WDW in 2022 the club enabled 80+ members to buy reduced price entry tickets, so it was quite a turn out from the club.

The 2026 event is looking to attract more club members than ever and it is being taken care of.  Please bear in mind a lot of the hotels where we want to stay are currently closed.

From Ducati......
From 3 to 5 July 2026, the world of Ducati gathers in Misano for the biggest event dedicated to Ducatisti and motorcycle enthusiasts: the World Ducati Week. And this year, there’s an extra reason to join: on 4 July, Ducati turns 100, right in the heart of the event.

Assuming that next year’s WDW follows the same format as previous years, then these were the major points of interest:

  • Facory & Museum tours are usualy open house to WDW ticket holders,Thursday & Friday 9:30am – 4:00pm, Saturday 9:30am-1:30pm?
  • The circuit is open Friday & Saturday 9:30am – about 9:30pm ish Sunday until 4:00pm
  • There was an ‘International Village’ with areas for clubs to congregate and mix, some with food, some with entertainment.
  • Various seminars and talks and tech stuff, a chance to compete stripping down a Panigale engine, a wheelie machine, custom bike show, Scrambler area, bike displays, stunt riders etc, food and drink and loads of bikes to wander around.
  • Friday & Saturday presumably a Race of Champions with WSB & MotoGP riders on track, plus autograph sessions.
  • Friday night everyone, seemed like 1000’s gathered on bikes at the circuit for a parade of the track and then out through Misano and up the coast, quite a sight and sound, it was packed, and a good laugh.
  • Saturday night... Who knows at present?
  • Track time on the circuit can be booked by ticket holders, clubs are allocated time on the track.

Tickets should be available in Spring 2026
If you want to take advantage of reduced price tickts you must be one of our registered and accpeted members on the Desmo Owners Club
Please get this sorted out as soon as possible to avoid a rush later.

We are trying to all keep together in the same area which will be close to bar Dolce Vita in Misano Adriatico, google WDW Dolce Vita and you will see why, in the past people have stayed up to half an hour away, whilst the bar is not to everyone’s taste it gives you the passion of the clubs at WDW where the circuit is all about Ducati, their partners and of course sponsors.

That's all we have for now. See you in Misano!
