The Irish Motorbike & Scooter Show

2023 - The Carole Nash Irish Motorbike and Scooter Show 2023 • 3-5 March RDS

The Carole Nash Irish Motorbike and Scooter Show comes to a close. Privacy Preference Center.

With deep personal sorrow, I have to inform you that the Carole Nash Irish Motorbike & Scooter Show, RDS, has been canceled. We will not be running the event in 2023, or any other future date.

It was a privilege to have been involved in such a vital part of the motorcycle community in Ireland and abroad. As the organizer of the event, which I'm sure you will agree was much loved by the thousands who attended or participated in it over the past twenty years at the RDS, I enjoyed my role.

Without the help of distributors, performers, industry icons, icons, Joey Dunlop to Giacomo Agostini, and most importantly, the support of the motorcycle community, this event would not have been possible or as successful. I want to thank you all from the bottom my heart.

We've had an incredible 300,000 motorcyclists pass through our doors over the past 20 years. We have seen brands launch to great success while others have reached an audience they wouldn't otherwise reach.

From the RDS's fire breathing performers to the amazing stunt riders, we have seen some incredible performances. Mattie Griffin and Chris Pfeiffer, who are both greatly missed, met Mattie at the 2004 show where they performed together. The Purple Helmets are the Isle of Man's favorite piano-playing motorcyclists.
