FH-DCE Super Rally 2026

The FH-DCE Super Rally is the "Eurovision" of Harley-Davidson rallies. It moves to a different country every year, organized by a different member club. It is the only motorcycle event in Europe authorized to use the H-D name but run entirely by independent biker clubs, not the factory.

For 2026, it returns to a legendary location in Scandinavia.

The Vibe: "Hygge" Meets Heavy Metal

The Super Rally has a very different vibe from Daytona or Faaker See. It is an "Old School" biker rally.

Closed to Public: Unlike other festivals, the Super Rally is traditionally exclusive to Harley-Davidson, Buell, and Indian riders (and invited guests). It is not a tourist spectacle; it is a party for bikers by bikers.

The "Hygge" Factor: You are in Denmark. The atmosphere will be well-organized, clean, safe, and friendly ("Hygge" is the Danish concept of cozy conviviality).

The Anniversary Party: Because H-DC Denmark is celebrating their 50th Anniversary alongside the 50th Super Rally, expect the entertainment budget and fireworks to be significantly higher than usual.

The Venue: Fredericia (Madsbyparken)

Fredericia is located on the eastern coast of the Jutland peninsula. This is a strategic choice for accessibility.

The Park: Madsbyparken is a fantastic venue. It is rolling hills, green grass, and small lakes. It feels like camping in a garden rather than a dusty field.

Facilities: Because it is a public park, the drainage is good (vital if it rains) and the facilities (toilets/showers) are usually top-tier for a rally.

Proximity: The site is walking distance to the historic city center of Fredericia and the beach.

Logistics: Getting There

Fredericia is arguably the most accessible location in Scandinavia for riders coming from mainland Europe.

1. From Germany (The South): You do not need a ferry. You can ride straight up the A7 Autobahn from Hamburg, cross the border into Denmark, and ride directly to Fredericia. It is about a 2-hour ride from the German border.

2. From Sweden/Norway (The North):

Bridge: You can take the Øresund Bridge from Malmö to Copenhagen, then cross the massive Great Belt Bridge (Storebælt) to reach Fredericia. Warning: The bridge tolls are expensive.

Ferry: Many riders take ferries from Gothenburg or Larvik to Hirtshals or Frederikshavn in northern Denmark and ride south.

3. From the UK: You will likely ride through France/Belgium/Holland/Germany. It is a long haul, but flat and fast riding.

Practical Information

1. The "Breakfast Bag" Tradition

One unique feature of the Super Rally is the breakfast. Your entry ticket usually includes a voucher for a daily breakfast bag (bread, cheese, juice, coffee). It’s a community ritual to line up in the morning, hungover, to get your bag.

2. Camping

Tent is King: 90% of attendees camp. The ground in Madsbyparken is grass, so it is comfortable.

Motorcycles at Tents: You park your bike right next to your tent.

Caravans/Campervans: There is usually a separate, designated area for support vehicles and campervans. They are often not allowed in the main tent area.

3. Currency and Payment

Currency: Denmark uses the Danish Krone (DKK), not the Euro.

Card is King: Denmark is a nearly cashless society. You can pay for beer, food, and gear with a card (Visa/Mastercard) almost everywhere. However, having some physical cash for small club vendors is always smart.

4. The Weather

It is late May in Scandinavia.

Day: Can be beautiful and sunny (18-22°C).

Night: It will get cold (down to 5-10°C).

Rain: There is always a chance of Atlantic showers. Waterproof your tent and bring good rain gear.

3 Insider Tips for Super Rally 2026

Book Ferries Now (If needed): If you are coming from Sweden or Norway, ferry slots for motorcycles on Pentecost weekend will sell out months in advance.

Great Belt Bridge Wind: If you ride across the Storebælt bridge (from Copenhagen), be prepared for high crosswinds. It is one of the longest suspension bridges in the world and can be scary on a fully loaded bike if it's windy.

Explore the "Little Belt": The venue is right next to the "Little Belt" (Lillebælt) strait. Take a ride over the Old Little Belt Bridge for incredible views of the water and the rally site from above.
