Charley Boorman VIP Night Tickets Now on Sale as the legendary adventurer films new documentary at the 2026 Briggs Equipment North West 200 on May 4-9

Zerofit Ambassador and adventure riding legend, Charley Boorman, will officially open this year’s Briggs Equipment North West 200 race week on May 4-9 with a Parade Lap around the iconic 8.9-mile Triangle course alongside Glenn Irwin, the most successful Superbike rider in the history of the event.

One of the stars of the Long Way series on Apple TV, Charley is coming to Northern Ireland in May to make a film about the famous road race. ‘Bigger…Better…Faster’ will be released later in the year and documents the untold stories and history of the NW200.

A limited number of tickets are now available for an exclusive VIP Night with Charley on Friday, May 8 in the Paddock’s Hospitality marquee where he’ll discuss the plot of the film and how it came about, as well as regaling attendees with tales of his 40 years riding around the world.

‘I’m a massive racing fan, but this will be my first trip to the North West, so it’s going to be an incredible trip. Charley said.

‘The guys at Zerofit are hugely passionate about the event, and when we spoke in more depth about it, I thought it would be a really cool film to make. I’ll be sitting down with Glenn and reflecting on his immense success at the event, as well as speaking to his family members about his decision to return this year.’

The history of the NW200 is something that really appealed to me, and I look forward to visiting the beautiful Dunlop Memorial Gardens and learning more about the road race and how it’s evolved through the years into the major global sporting event that it has become,’ he added.

Charley will also interview Alastair Seeley, Peter Hickman and Dean Harrison about their experiences of racing at the North West, as well as meeting the supporters, staff and sponsors that make the event truly magical.

‘We are delighted that Charley will be making his first visit to the North West 200 this year and making a film about his experiences with us.’ Race Director, Mervyn Whyte said.

‘Charley has explored the world on motorcycles and has many tales to tell about his travels. Our special ‘Charley Boorman VIP Night’ on Friday, May 8 in the paddock’s hospitality marquee will be an event not to be missed.’

Tickets for the VIP Night are available here priced at £10.00 each. Numbers are strictly limited so book now https://northwest200.co.uk/nw200-race-week-events/ to secure your place on what will be a fantastic night with Charley.
