BUT NOT UNREPEATABLE BECAUSE IN 2025...

Misano Adriatico, 8 June 2024 - More than twenty thousand people from all over Italy and Europe arrived to celebrate Aprilia, their bikes, their riders, and their heritage. The 2024 edition of Aprilia All Stars was an absolute success, so much that it significantly surpassed the glorious numbers of past editions.
Also favoured by the summer weather, motorcycle enthusiasts, motorsport lovers, and many groups of friends and families literally invaded Misano World Circuit. Thousands also arrived on their own beloved Aprilia bikes and, in paddock, and then in the huge final procession on the track, practically every one of the Veneto-based manufacturer’s models were seen, from the ’70s off-road bikes, to the legendary ’80s era 125s, the twin-cylinder SBK machines, the motards, and so forth, all the way to the recent RSV4, Tuono V4, Tuareg, and the very first RS 457 bikes.

And lots of stars turned up to celebrate together the most victorious Italian and European brand in World Championship GP Motorcycle Racing with 298 GP wins.
Joining the current champions, Maverick Viñales, Aleix Espargaró, Miguel Oliveira, and Lorenzo Savadori, were true legends the likes of Max Biaggi, Loris Capirossi, Alex Gramigni, and Mattia Pasini.
Riders who had fun as if they were unbridled youths, taking the 125 and 250 bikes that dominated the 2T categories of World Championship GP Motorcycle Racing back on the track, as well as then being protagonists of the Race of Stars, a spectacular two-person race with Le Mans start where they battled on the track astride Aprilia RS 660 bikes. At the end of eleven super fun laps, full of upsets, and two rider changes, the duo made up of Miguel Oliveira and Loris Capirossi won ahead of Maverick Viñales and journalist/tester Stefano Cordara. Aleix Espargaró and Matteo Baiocco took the remaining spot on the podium.

The Aprilia RS-GP units, protagonists in the MotoGP World Championship, certainly the most highly anticipated stars of the day, showed off on the track with the presentation of the MotoGP teams to the public, including the Aprilia Racing Factory team and the American TrackHouse team with its splendid stars and stripes livery.
Lots of applause and growing enthusiasm greeted the off-road champions. Jacopo Cerutti, dominator at the Dakar finish line of the Africa Eco Race, Francesco Montanari, and Claudio Spanu presented their Aprilia Tuaregs set up by GCorse.

The gaming area, the non-stop free test rides of Aprilia bikes from morning to evening, the sneak preview of the docufilm “Tuareg regina d’Africa” and the “Aprilia seen from the East” exhibit by Japanese photographer Aki Kusudo, were just a few of the most popular attractions, but the entire paddock offered constant opportunities for entertainment, starting with the eight consecutive hours of music and entertainment by Radio DeeJay.
And, at the end of the day, a young Aprilia fan, luckier than the rest, had his passion rewarded with an RS 457. The new sport bike from Aprilia that was raffled off, with every festival participant who registered on site eligible to win.

Now all eyes are on Aprilia All Stars 2025, to attempt to beat this year’s records and give every Aprilia fan another unforgettable day of pure fun.
