Full speed ahead at the TT Circuit in Assen. From August 13 to 15, the International German Motorcycle Championship (IDM) will be making a stop at the 4.542-kilometer track. And finally, spectators are allowed back—both in the grandstands and in the paddock.
In a week and a half, the IDM will take to the circuit, which was designed exclusively for motorcycles. Competing will be the IDM classes Superbike 1000, Supersport , Supersport , and Sidecar. The supporting program will feature the IDM Superstock 600 Cup and the junior class Yamaha R3 bLU cRU Cup.

After a long period of COVID-related restrictions, the IDM is once again a series you can experience up close in Assen. Every race ticket purchased automatically includes free access to the paddock. You can reach the paddock from the grandstands via the paddock tunnel.

Admission is free for all guests on Friday. A Saturday ticket costs €19.00, and a Sunday ticket costs €25.00. A combination ticket for both race days is €35.00. Admission is always free for guests 17 years of age and younger. Tickets are sold on-site.
The requirement to wear a face mask has been largely lifted in the Netherlands. Masks are not required within the TT Circuit grounds.
