This autumn, Rouvy is inviting everyone to its two-week ROUVY FEST, a celebration of cycling that will bring riders from all over the world together for 14 days of special rides and experiences.
ROUVY FEST is running from the 12th to the 25th of October on the real-world cycling app Rouvy.
Rouvy lets riders explore real-life roads indoors from Mont Ventoux to the Mountains of Vermont. ROUVY FEST is bringing riders together and provides the chance to engage and ride with some of road cycling and triathlon's biggest stars and industry names.
A ROUVY FEST pass is all that’s needed to participate in the festival. Riders with a Fest pass will gain access to an exclusive in-app kit, boosted rewards, promotions and giveaways.
You only need a Rouvy subscription to gain a ROUVY FEST pass; there is no extra admission fee. Riders with an existing Rouvy subscription will automatically get their ROUVY FEST Pass.
If you don’t have your subscription yet, sign up and get a free 7-day trial to get a taste of all things Rouvy.
ROUVY FEST is already bringing riders together, and the second week of the festival will create some incredible experiences, new friendships and special stories.
A big part of ROUVY FEST is riding, and there is an amazing range of curated group rides happening during the festival. The opening few days have attracted hundreds of riders already.
WorldTour pros, world record holders, pro triathletes, and special Rouvy guests are all taking part in a range of rides.
Here’s the full breakdown of who you can ride with during the second week of ROUVY FEST:

Each day of the festival has a route of the day, where the majority of riders gather. Head here for main stage traffic and vibes, but feel free to go off and explore on your own in far-flung corners of the festival too.
There is also something for the racers and those looking to go hard. The ROUVY FEST race will offer a mass-start competitive event on selected real-world routes for extra excitement.
Bolstering the competitive element will be the ‘Beat the CEO’ challenge, giving ROUVY FEST holders a chance to take on Rouvy CEO Petr Samek.
Riders can also go head-to-head with British hill climb star Andrew Feather on Mallorca's famous Cap de Formentor climb.
There’s more to ROUVY FEST than just the riding. The festival is providing a fantastic chance to get involved with a vibrant community of cyclists, make new friends and connections or even join a Rouvy club.
The Rouvy Café community hub provides a place to hang out and chat with fellow riders before and after rides, further bridging the gap between outdoor and indoor riding.
There are also extra riding rewards to take advantage of during ROUVY FEST. Riders will earn double the usual amount of Rouvy coins for completing any route.
Completing any ROUVY FEST challenge will also earn double the usual amount of XP points.
Virtual jerseys are also available. The ROUVY FEST jersey is available for completing the challenge, and the riders who completed Amy and Kyle's ride on the 12th will also receive a special jersey.
All you need is a Rouvy subscription to get involved, join the festival and explore thousands of real-world routes from the French Alps to Utah.
ROUVY FEST is the perfect way to kick-start your winter of indoor training gains. Don’t miss out on one of the most exciting indoor events of the year.
