On Sunday, October 26, 2025, the Nürburgring will once again become a huge adventure playground for young and old alike: from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Nürburgring Family Day will entice visitors with a packed autumn break program that leaves nothing to be desired – and admission is free. Whether in the covered ring°boulevard, the interactive ring°werk museum, the ring°carré, or on the BMW M Power grandstand with a view of the classic car festival taking place at the same time – there will be something for all generations on this day.
On the large event stage, RPR1 will host a varied show program. Also appearing: social media star Jannik Freestyle, who will thrill audiences with his breathtaking ball skills, and children's songwriter Volker Rosin, who will get everyone moving with his “Animal Children's Disco” interactive concert. They will be joined by the popular mascots: Nürburgring fox Legend and his friends Summi from the Rhein-Zeitung newspaper, the RPR bear, Katta & Ingo from Schauinsland-Reisen, and the Mini Monti duck from monte mare – perfect photo opportunities for memories of an unforgettable day.
The adventure mile in the ring°boulevard is lined with interactive activities, including magic acts by Roy & Dominik, the ring°kids Grand Prix with Bobby Cars and go-karts, balance bike course, games oasis and Katta's games mobile, test seating in a real Formula car, face painting, exciting technical experiments with Junior Uni Daun, reaction games with AOK, impressive motorcycle trial demonstrations by AAC Bad Neuenahr, and soccer for the whole family with the Rhineland Soccer Association. The fire department, police, and rescue services will present their emergency vehicles, while the historic racing cars of the Oldtimer Festival can be admired on the race track from the BMW M Power grandstand.
There will also be plenty of variety outside the ring°boulevard: electric karts await for fast laps on the ring°kartbahn, the Polo Kids Drift Academy invites visitors to try out motorcycle training, and the backstage tour offers exclusive insights behind the scenes of the legendary race track. Culinary highlights are provided by the Bitburger Gasthaus and the LUCIA restaurant in the ring°carré – including children's cocktails, a bouncy castle, and a Ravensburger play area.
The ring°werk motorsport experience museum opens its doors free of charge to children on Family Day. Around 100 years of motorsport history, legendary vehicles, and interactive activities await visitors here.
Free parking in the immediate vicinity (B1, A6 to A8) makes the Nürburgring Family Day the perfect destination for a Sunday during the fall break.
