Dream Machines Bike Night is a weekly event taking place on Tuesday nights, between May & September.
This popular event draws bikers from all over the country coming to show off their beautiful machines, meet up with fellow enthusiasts and compete for “Bike of the night”.
Poole Quay is closed off to all traffic and is taken over by a stream of shiny, gleaming, (and sometimes noisy!) bikes.
The event starts at 6pm and is one of the UK’s premier biking events. Please do not arrive before 5.30pm – parking will not be available before this time and we need to avoid queues forming.
Often attracting over 1000 bikers an evening, the event is fully marshalled and if you wish to bring along your own bike entry costs just £3.00 per bike on the night. This year Poole Dream Machines is aiming to be cashless, there will be credit card machines on the night to pay for tickets. Alternatively you can purchase your tickets in advance online.
Payment for this can either be by cash of via contactless card (the cashiers will have card readers available). The price of the season ticket is £10.00 and will be available to purchase from the Tourist Information Centre in Poole Museum.
The event is free to spectators.
This event really creates a wonderful atmosphere, the quay glistens away as the evening sun bounces off these sparkling machines with both bikers and spectators mingling and having fun.
The local pubs and restaurants offer a great selection of food and drink with many having “bike night” specials and there is often live music.
Even if you have never been interested in bikes before this event really is something else and you can’t help but appreciate the time, effort, care and dedication that these men and women put into their bikes and this event. Plus where else are you going to see rows and rows of gleaming motorbikes? It’s quite an impressive sight!
Dream Machines is a great evening out for everyone of all ages, why not pop along and see for yourself! The event takes place every Tuesday.
