The biggest crowd pullers of all were Triumph and Piaggio with their huge center stalls and had their entire range of bikes on display.

While the rest of the stalls had a static display of bikes, Mahindra even went a step further to provide the fans a free test ride of the Mahindra Mojo within the confines of the arena and even held a lucky draw contest where the winner would get a free Mojo jacket.
Apart from the manufacturers, there are stalls from other merchandise and accessories companies like Alpinestars who has a full-fledged stall while others had smaller stalls who were selling clothing and merchandise.

One of the biggest highlight of the festival is the Vintage bikes display which contains almost all the Vintage bike models available in India from the BMWs to the BMXs to the Norton and even the Cartier AJS which was a national award winner for the best vintage bike in 2013 in the Vintage bike fair.
