Festival season go: These three bike festivals are taking place in August
The smallest bike festival
On 7 and 8 August, the smallest bike festival will once again be held on the village square in Parpan, where bikers of all ages can experience trails, fun, culinary delights and a cozy get-together. The small festival area offers a festival restaurant with food and drinks, the Herbert gondola, the Kafi Tante, the workshop bus and much more.
The program offers, for example, a treasure hunt for young and old, bike tours such as the "Trail Fireworks" or the "Bike Shuttle Tours", "Early Bird Shuttle" and "Biker Zmorge" on Saturday, as well as the "Parpan Bike Challenge" for children. Live music will be provided by Swiss soul singer Caroline Chevin.
The number of participants on the tours is limited, so pre-registration is advisable. Day tickets are available in advance for 8 francs or the "Fans and Friends" festival pass for 20 francs, which entitles you to Caroline Chevin's concert.www.kleinstes-bikefestival.ch
