About Killarney Bike Festival
Back in 2006, the quiet town of Killarney found itself thunderously transformed when 5,000 members of the Harley-Davidson Owners Group rolled in for their annual European rally. The roar of the engines, the gleam of the bikes, and the camaraderie of the riders left an indelible mark on the town and its people.
Smitten with the motorcycle community, Killarney decided to create its own annual biker festival the very next year. With the support of Harley-Davidson, the Gleneagle Hotel, and Fáilte Ireland, Killarney’s free open biker festival was born.
