Mumbai: Clear your calendar, charge your cameras, and warn your neighbours — Generation Speed, India’s premier motoring festival, is back for its second edition on February 7 & 8, 2026, at the spectacular Aamby Valley Air Strip near Lonavala. And this time, it’s returning with even more horsepower, decibels, and smiles per litre.
From the creators of the legendary India Bike Week, the festival that routinely attracts over 20,000 two-wheel junkies every year, Generation Speed is fast becoming the country’s most inclusive celebration of everything with wheels, engines, and attitude. Think of it as a family reunion — except everyone argues about torque figures and tyre compounds.
A Festival That Runs on Passion (and Premium Fuel)
What started in 2025 as a bold experiment to unite India’s fragmented car and bike culture has now evolved into a full-blown movement. In 2026, Generation Speed promises to turn the picturesque Aamby Valley Air Strip into a motoring utopia where supercars, classics, race machines, and wildly modified builds coexist in glorious harmony.
Martin da Costa, Founder and CEO of 70 EMG, summed it up best:
“The response to the first edition proved that India’s motoring culture isn’t just alive — it’s accelerating. Generation Speed isn’t just a festival; it’s where the emotional bond between people and machines comes alive. Whether you ride, drive, build, or just admire from a safe distance, this is where you belong.”
What’s Under the Hood at Generation Speed 2026?
Pretty much everything — and then some.
🚗 Car Displays (200+ Machines of Madness)
From elegant classics in Legacy Lane to fire-breathing supercars in Speed Shikari Den, race-winning machines in the Motorsport Class, and outrageously modified builds in Mod’s Own Country, this is India’s finest metal, up close and loud.
🏁 Track & Competition Action
Expect tyre smoke and adrenaline overload with Drift Competitions judged by FIA-affiliated experts, FMSCI-backed Autocross, Quarter Mile Time Trials, Drag Races, Mud Drags, and tuner battles that settle bragging rights once and for all.
🎓 Generation Speed Schools
Learn from the best with drift clinics by DX Drift Dubai, rally training by Chetan Shivram Motorsport, and 4×4 recovery courses by I4WDTA-certified instructors. Because skill is cooler than just straight-line speed.
🎮 Experiences & Playgrounds
Go-karting, dirt karting, mini-moto, race and drift simulators, RC racing zones, 4×4 trails, rock crawling taxi rides — basically, if it moves, you can probably drive it.
🎶 Music, Food & After-Hours Fun
As engines cool, the beats heat up. DJs like Sickflip take over the evenings, followed by after-parties at Aamby Valley, BBQ-led Fireside After Hours, and motoring-themed socials. Add gourmet food trucks and the Big Forkers Grill Fest, and you’ve got fuel for both car and driver.
👨👩👧👦 Family Friendly (Yes, Really)
From kids to grown-ups, Generation Speed 2026 is designed as a full-family outing — with ATV rides, RC games, adventure sports, and curated experiences that ensure nobody feels left out.
Bottom Line
Generation Speed 2026 isn’t just an auto show, a race meet, or a music festival — it’s where India’s motoring culture finally gets its own grand celebration. Loud, inclusive, adrenaline-fuelled, and unapologetically passionate.
