Ducati has officially opened ticket sales for World Ducati Week (WDW) 2026. The event will take place from July 3rd to 5th, 2026, at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli in Misano Adriatico, Italy. According to Ducati, WDW 2026 will be a special edition, marking the culmination of the company's year-long celebration of its 100th anniversary.
Ducatisti from around the globe are expected to converge on the Adriatic Riviera for a weekend filled with motorcycle-centric activities. Traditionally, WDW includes opportunities for test rides, riding experiences, and paddock access. A highlight is the parade, where a large group of motorcycles participates in a lap around the Misano circuit.
The Race of Champions is planned again, but with a new format in 2026. According to Ducati, the race weekend will include free practice and qualifying sessions on Saturday, followed by the main race on Sunday. This will give spectators an enhanced racing experience.
Tickets are available in two formats, according to Ducati:
- Biker Pass: For participants arriving with a motorcycle.
- Visitor Pass: For passengers or those attending without a motorcycle.
Both pass types grant access to public areas and free participation in many activities. Ducati also states that there will be two sales phases for tickets. The first phase, called "Early Advantage," runs from January 26th to March 25th and offers discounted rates. After March 25th, regular ticket pricing will apply.
WDW ticket holders can visit the Ducati factory and museum in Borgo Panigale at a reduced rate. Admission for minors up to 18 years of age will cost a symbolic €1. Free admission will be granted to participants from outside Europe (Asia, Africa, the Americas, and Oceania), as well as people with disabilities and their accompanying persons.
A discounted rate is available for Ducati Official Club (D.O.C.) members. Tickets can also be purchased at Ducati dealerships. According to Ducati, tickets are exclusively available in digital format and are nominal.
