Bilster Berg Trackday May 2026 – Racetrack, BBQ & the Perfect Start to the Season

The evening before

There are circuits you can drive. And then there's Bilster Berg. This facility in the Teutoburg Forest is no ordinary track – it's a three-dimensional puzzle of blind crests, rapid changes of direction and corners you only truly understand once you've experienced them on foot.

That's exactly why, on 1 May – the evening before the trackday itself – we invited all participants to a Get Together. We walked the track together. No engines, no distractions. We pointed out the reference points, discussed different lines and explained why Bilster Berg rewards those who think before they brake.

The evening had a flair all of its own: the sunset bathed the facility in that warm, orange light you could hardly wish for any better at moments like this. Then food off the grill, cold drinks, open garages. And who was manning the grill? None other than Frank Danger himself – motorsport legend and founder of Reifen Danger. The paddock turned into a party. Exactly as it should be.

Bilster Berg forgives nothing. But that's exactly what makes it so unforgettable.

TWENTYSEVEN Trackdays

The day itself

Nine o'clock in the morning. Check-in, briefing, helmets on – and go. From the very first lap, 2 May belonged to us. A great turnout, an exuberant atmosphere and a mix of cars that covered the entire spectrum of motorsport.

We ran in two groups: Group Track for race cars that aren't road-legal, and Group Street for road-legal sports cars. Two groups, two worlds – but one energy throughout the paddock.

Atmosphere & verdict

What made the day special wasn't just the circuit. It was the atmosphere in the paddock. Anyone who has been to Bilster Berg knows: this place has something special about it. It's compact enough for everyone to get to know each other – and spacious enough for everyone to have their own space.

The mood among the participants reflected that. While the last laps were still being driven, the first question came: “When are you coming back?” We didn't keep them waiting long for the answer.

Helmets off. Engines off. Until the next lap.

We're coming back – and you already know it

Demand was so clear that we acted while the event was still running: 13 July 2026 and 2 May 2027 are booked. Both dates at Bilster Berg. If you missed the May trackday: this wasn't a one-off – it's a series.

Places are limited. Anyone who knows how quickly the slots went last time knows what that means.

What TWENTYSEVEN is all about

A trackday is more than an open track and a schedule. For us, the day starts the evening before – with a shared trackwalk, real conversations and the understanding that track knowledge doesn't happen by chance. Bilster Berg is technical, demanding and utterly honest. Hit the line and you're rewarded. Miss it and you learn. Bilster Berg makes drivers better.

We are TWENTYSEVEN. We don't organise events. We create unforgettable moments that we'll remember for the rest of our lives.
