Join us at the inaugural Gravel and Adventure Bike Expo as part of the Adventure Travel Show in London!

The Adventure Travel show has been happening since the ’90s, showcasing the top adventures from providers from around the country. For the first time ever, the show is bringing the Gravel and Adventure Bike Expo along for the ride, showing off fresh bikes from tonnes of brands while holding talks from leading names across the ultra-endurance and adventure cycling community. And we’ll be there!

Held over the 10th and 11th of January 2026, brands from all corners of the adventure and gravel bike worlds will descend upon London’s Business Design Centre to show off their wares and highlight new adventures. Though 2026’s show is a little bit special, as for the first time, the Gravel and Adventure Bike Expo comes as a new element for the event.

The Gravel and Adventure Bike Expo is all about life on two wheels and exploring the world by bike. Expect to see exhibitions from brands such as Surly, Schwalbe, Vielo, Kinesis, and Guava, as well as appearances from bike travel specialists such as Italy Bike Hotels, Red Dirt Uganda GravelUp, and more. Of course, entries will all grant access to everything that the Adventure Travel Show has on offer, with speakers from around the globe.

However, the Gravel and Adventure Bike Expo will have its own speakers, taking the format of ‘Round the Campfire’ discussions where top riders, Josh Ibbet, Markus Stitz, Mark Beaumont, and Angèle Paty offer top advice on where to go to experience the best gravel riding the world has to offer, and how to get big ultra-distance rides planned, and done.

But maybe the best bit is that we’ll be there! The Round the Campfire discussion has invited me and off.road.cc to unveil our Gravel Bike of the Year in the flesh. I’ll be talking about why we picked the winning bike, what makes it great, and other neat details it might have. I might even bring the Mountain Bike of the Year, too.

The show will take place at the Business Design Centre in Islington, London, on the 10th and 11th of January. Tickets will set you back £11 for adults, £4 for kids, and the ticket covers entry for both the Adventure Travel show and the Gravel and Adventure Bike Expo. Doors are open from 9:30 to 17:30 on Saturday, and from 9:30 to 16:00 on Sunday.

For off.road.cc readers, the Adventure Travel Show is offering a buy-one-get-one-free deal, so pop ‘OFFROADCC241’ into the coupons box upon checkout.

But that’s not all, as each ticket enters you into a raffle that puts you in with the chance of winning a free Guava bike that’s ready and raring to go for big gravel adventures, as it’ll be fully tricked out with bags and luggage from Tailfin.
