ANDBike Festival Returns to La Massana for Second Edition on June 20-21

The ANDBike festival will return to La Massana on 20 and 21 June for its second edition, supported by Pal Arinsal ski resort, the Andorra MoraBanc Clàssica road race, and Andorra Turisme.

Organised to establish La Massana as a key cycling destination in the Pyrenees, the event will feature exhibiting bike brands, sector professionals, and opportunities for visitors to test the latest models for free. It aims to create synergies with parallel competitions, including the Copa Catalana DHI downhill race at Pal Arinsal and the second edition of the professional Andorra MoraBanc Clàssica.

Attendees can also access bike trials at the Pal Arinsal Bike Park. The festival's sports programme kicks off on Saturday with the Ciclo Andorra-La Massana gran fondo, which follows emblematic local roads and offers three distance options to match varying fitness levels. Sunday brings the non-competitive Ebike Tour, a leisurely electric mountain bike outing to explore the surroundings.

Tourism councillor Mònica Solé described ANDBike as integral to La Massana's strategy to become a cycling benchmark not just in Andorra but across the Pyrenees. She said the goal is for it to grow into an annual highlight for riders in all disciplines, combining equipment demos with fun, family-oriented activities.

Toni Rodríguez, SETAP365's mountain services director, noted the natural link with Pal Arinsal, which oversees downhill aspects within La Massana's broader bike ecosystem. He called the partnership enriching, as it bolsters commitment to top-tier local cycling events.

Carlos Verona, professional cyclist and key figure behind the Andorra MoraBanc Clàssica, highlighted the overlapping audiences and aligned aims. He said both events share the objective of delivering a full weekend of cycling in the Pyrenean heartland. Verona praised La Massana's strong investments in recreational and professional cycling, which have attracted more resident pros and tourist cyclists. He added that the collaboration could launch the 2026 season in grand style.

Sponsored by Creand, ANDBike promises a family-friendly vibe with food trucks, live music, a pump track, and activities for all ages, forming a comprehensive cycling hub.
