Warwickshire is proving to be a draw for Top Gear stars. The full line up has now been confirmed for the ABR Festival 2026 – and it includes Richard Hammond.<\/p>\n

Taking place from June 26 to 28 the event at Ragley Hall is set to see adventure bikers, travellers, and explorers descend on Warwickshire<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But before that in May, Hammond’s co-presenter Jeremy Clarkson is heading to the area for his own event at Stoneleigh Park.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Great British Farm Fest takes place from May 22 to 24.<\/p>\n

Amongst the confirmed names for the ABR Festival are Richard Hammond, Charley Boorman, Ted Simon, Chris Birch, Carl Fogarty, Kinga Tanajewska (AKA On Her Bike), and Elspeth Beard, which organisers say is one of the most impressive line-ups in the motorcycle festival’s history.<\/p>\n

Each of the five stages provides something distinct, from headline presentations to open discussions guided by audience Q and A, practical masterclasses, and relaxed storytelling sessions.<\/p>\n

Event owner Alun Davies said: “When I look at the full list of speakers appearing at the ABR Festival 2026 I’m full on excited, enthused and star struck…and we’ve not even opened the gates yet.<\/p>\n

“From the godfather of adventure motorcycling, Ted Simon, to Kenton Cool, who has climbed Everest 20 times, there’s world class inspiration, entertainment and adventure on every stage.”<\/p>\n

The ABR Festival unites thousands of motorcyclists annually for a three-day showcase of biking culture. Situated within the estate of Ragley Hall, the gathering offers organised rides, expert workshops and an eclectic live music schedule spanning four performance areas. The globe’s top manufacturers will also provide test rides spanning an extensive selection of bikes, with last year witnessing over 10,000 demonstration rides undertaken. More than 200 exhibitors will be present displaying the newest kit and equipment, while tour operators present distinctive motorcycle touring opportunities.<\/p>\n

With a broadened programme and improved facilities, the 2026 instalment of the ABR Festival is poised to be the largest to date.<\/p>\n
