Lyon is becoming the nerve center of the two wheels of our neighboring country. The announcement of the Mo-Town inauguration, on April 18, 2025, confirms this theory.
In the French city we can also enjoy, for example, one of the reference events of the motorcycle world, within the galas borders, the 2 -wheele room. Last year he managed to agglutinate more than 150,000 visitors, as reported from Le Repire des Motards.
Mo-Town: The largest thematic town in Europe, motorcycle and accessories brands
At present, this title is held by another similar enclosure located in Montpellier: Moto Park. In it, more than twenty brands related to the motorcycle industry meet to delight visitors. However, after the inauguration of Mo-Town, everything indicates that the latter will now be the European enclosure of this type of more size to date.
As described by its creators, “The largest meeting of motorcycle and accessories brands in Europe, Mo-Town promises to be a great event in the 2-wheeled world. Designed as a town with its great central street and its main square, the complex is divided into juxtaposed commercial areas, punctuated in particular by a game of roofs with varied ridges. ”
They conclude: “The landscape interacts with the 16,000 m² of buildings to offer a new transgenerational approach, open and friendly to the world of motorcycling in a broad sense. A restaurant and services complete the offer, supported by a voluntary architecture on a human scale. ” Hudson Development, with Julien Rollet, as a founder and director, launched this project with Patrick Miton by Soho Architecture.
Located exactly in the town of Vénissieuxthis project started with the building works in 2018, for an amount close to the 17 million euros. In addition to the 16,000 m² of surfacededicated to the sale of motorcycles and equipment, as well as the presence of several workshops, it will also have a huge restaurant of about 1,000 m².
The most relevant brands in the sector will meet in Mo-Town, such as Ducati, Triumph, Kawasaki, Kymco, KTM, Zero Motorcycles or Can-AM, among many others. This will be from next April 18at which time its inauguration is scheduled.
