Scooter Mart Motor Fest On June 29
Scooter Mart Motor Fest, presented by Bermuda Charge, returns to Front Street on June 29 with free shows, custom vehicles, and a sunset charity ride-out.
A spokesperson said, “Scooter Mart Motor Fest, presented by Bermuda Charge, is set to deliver another thrilling year of horsepower, community, and creativity for thousands of onlookers. This year’s festival promises an action-packed day filled with thunderous live performances, fascinating exhibits, and family-friendly entertainment on Front Street.
“The show is free for spectators, and Warwick Gombeys will kickstart the festivities at 2pm on Sunday 29 June. Highlights include international stunt rider ClutchUp Corey performing in the Mailboxes SEND IT Stunt Show, international vintage superbikes at the Stolzfus Logistics tent, and Isle of Man TT winner Steve Plater trying his luck in the CG Slow Race!
“More than 100 tents are expected to display, and the Traditional Village, east of the Flagpole, will be jam-packed with colourful vintage bikes, modified custom creations, and true classics – all competing for $4,000 of cash prizes at the Best in Show contest. A two-night stay will be awarded to the winner of the Hamilton Princess Work of Art award, which recognises bikes with outstanding artistic merit. Steve Plater will also be awarding free luxury stays, at the Hillcrest Boutique Hotel, to both the winner and runner-up of the Plater’s Choice award.
“The water will be filled with the roar of power boat racing in Hamilton Harbour, and this year there will be live camera crews on hand to interview top-billed performers. Local motorsports clubs will show off their skills in the Action Arena. And on the west end of Front Street, by the Birdcage, a mesmerising collection of vintage and custom cars will provide something for all tastes. New for this year, a one-of-a-kind Audi TT Roadster will compete against other modified sports cars to win Best in Show. Nearby, Radio Control car, bike and boat exhibitions will invite families to get involved.
“The program is displayed below [please note, the BKA are unable to attend - the 2.45pm time slot will instead be filled with stunts, wheelies and burnouts].
Bermi Cars Drives Sustainability Forward as Title Sponsor of Motor Fest’s Eco Village
“The Bermi Cars Eco Village will display the latest tech innovations in Bermuda, including e-bikes, kick scooters, hybrid and electric cars from BERMI, EVM, and Bermuda Motors, as well as futuristic solutions for day-to-day living. The entrance will feature a colourful flower wall surrounded by BERMI’s current range of EVs, and a hydration station for thirsty onlookers.
“The Flagpole will set the stage for the St George’s Original Dancerettes and Natural Movement Aerial Acrobatics. DJ Chubb and DJ Cheeky will handle the decks, while Mr Fotogenik hosts. Also at the Flagpole, new features will enhance the CG Slow Race, where riders compete to be the slowest across 50 feet, without putting a foot down. The popular event will host an exhibition round with international guests Steve Plater and ClutchUp Corey at 4.45, before the battle for a year of free insurance starts! A medal will be awarded to the slowest clutch bike, followed by heats for the automatics, culminating in a grand final to determine Bermuda’s slowest rider and winner of the famous snail trophy!
“The festival closes at 7pm with its annual charity ride-out, a cornerstone of Motor Fest, taking participants on a sunset ride from Front Street to Spanish Point, and continuing to Flatts Village, before returning to Hamilton for a closing Glow Show outside Front Yard, when participants and organisers will sit to share stories and enjoy the light shows of Bermuda’s exceptional vehicles.
“Scooter Mart Motor Fest will take place on Sunday, June 29, 2025, with a rain date scheduled for a week later, July 6. The event is free for spectators, however, participant tickets are available online at PTIX.bm/motorfest.
“$10 from every ticket is donated to the festival’s youth community performers, and registered charity Greenrock.
