The Nürburgring highlights in July

28.06.2024

Trucks, darts, bikes and Rossi: every weekend in July, the Nürburgring attracts exciting events. The month starts with a premiere: the DLMM (July 5 - 7) is coming to the ring°boulevard for the first time as one of the biggest darts tournaments in Europe. At the International ADAC Truck Grand Prix (July 11 - 14), more than 100,000 visitors will once again celebrate a lively and fun-filled trucking weekend. Just a week later, the Nordschleife will become a two-wheeler mecca at Rad am Ring (July 19 - 21) and the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe (July 26 - 28) will bring a huge field of super sports cars to the Grand Prix circuit at the end of the month. At the wheel of one of the 50 GT3 cars: motorcycle legend Valentino Rossi.

The events at a glance:

Int. ADAC Truck-Grand-Prix  (July 11 - 14)
Music, trade fair, motorsport: the Truck Grand Prix combines all of this into a unique event. Race trucks from the FIA European Truck Racing Championship will be competing for points and trophies on the track. Other races such as the ADAC GT Masters round off the horsepower action. Manufacturers, haulage companies and suppliers present themselves to the public in the paddock. Also on hand: the children's area - including a duck rodeo and bouncy castles. The Müllenbachschleife, part of the Grand Prix circuit, will be transformed into a festival area. There will be a country evening on Friday - with Tom Astor, among others. Saturday promises a party atmosphere. Isi Glück, Julian Benz, Nancy Franck and Peter Wackel will ensure a good mood. For the first time this year, music-only tickets are available for the Truck Grand Prix. 10 euros for the country evening on Friday, 12.50 euros for the party evening on Saturday. Day tickets for the entire event are available for 20 euros.

Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe (July 26 - 28)
Around 50 dream cars on 5.1 kilometers of Grand Prix track: The Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe Powered by AWS will be really crowded at the Nürburgring. The series brings one of the largest GT starting fields in the world to the Eifel - with many well-known racing drivers and teams. Nürburgring fans will be very familiar with racing teams such as ROWE Racing, GetSpeed and Walkenhorst Motorsport, as well as the drivers: Maro Engel, Augusto Farfus and Marco Wittmann, to name but a few. The best known, however, is Valentino Rossi. The Italian motorcycle star is also fast on four wheels. One thing is just like in his MotoGP days: his iconic starting number 46. Tickets for the race Sunday cost 25 euros, the whole weekend is 35 euros. Admission to the paddock is included.

Rad am Ring (July 19 - 21) 
Another 24-hour race is coming up on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife: This time, however, muscle power is required instead of horsepower. At Rad am Ring, two-wheel cracks can pedal for a day and a night. In a team with up to seven competitors or as an individual starter. The athletes achieve amazing performances. Last year's winner of the individual classification, for example, rode no less than 26 laps of the Nordschleife in 24 hours. However, Rad am Ring also offers numerous opportunities for the less trained over the weekend. Tourists can ride without any time pressure - even on e-bikes. Mountain bikers will also get their money's worth on an off-road track along the race route. There are also special competitions for children. Registration is still possible for some disciplines at fair conditions. If you just want to watch, admission is free.

DLMM – Deutsche Liga Mannschafts-Meisterschaften im Darts  (July 5 - 7)
Europe's biggest e-darts tournament is coming to the Nürburgring for the first time. The German League Team Championships in Darts (DLMM) will be coming to the Eifel with 500 teams and more than 3,000 active players. For three days, the ring°boulevard right next to the start-finish straight will be transformed into an e-darts mecca - after all, the games will take place simultaneously on around 200 dart machines. If you want to watch the action on the weekend, admission to the DLMM in the ring°boulevard is free.
