EDITION 14 – 11 TO 15 JUNE
All information to prepare your Wheels and Waves Edition 14 experience and stay in the Basque Country.
After what was, in many ways, an epic edition, it’s time to send out a massive THANK YOU!
Thank you to all of you — visitors, partners, sponsors, exhibitors, followers, photographers, videographers, families, service providers, technical crews, city teams, local stakeholders, the City of Biarritz, the Prefecture, and our guests — some of whom travelled from across the globe to be with us. The energy we shared at Punk’s Peak, Artride, The Race Of The Lords, Vintage Rally, El Rollo, Duo Log, Hit The Deck, the concerts… reminds us of one thing: authenticity and originality are at the heart of who we are. It’s in our DNA.
Friends of Wheels and Waves, thank you again, for your trust, your energy, and all these incredible years we’ve ridden together.
Step into a world where time fades away, where encounters hold a taste of the unexpected, where every moment is an invitation to dare. Heading west to the coast and stepping through the gates of the Wheels and Waves Village is a symbol of this 2025 tagline. Here, you are free to explore, to dream, to cross that line between the ordinary and the extraordinary. We all have a line within us—the one that holds us back, that keeps us from pushing past our fears, our comfort zone. The one that it’s time to cross, to truly live, here and now.
One rule: Dare.
Come, meet, feel, embrace the moment. Cross the line!
Wheels and Waves is a 5-day multispots event between France and Spain, with the W&W Village as its headquarters in Biarritz. To fully enjoy your experience, we strongly advise you to have your own vehicle.
