Kimberley to Come Alive This Weekend

Staff Reporter

Kimberley is expected to come alive as approximately 2,000 bikers and supporters from across the country descend on the city this weekend for the highly anticipated Charity Run hosted by the Diamond Knights Bikers Club.

Running from Friday 13 November to Sunday 15 November 2026, the massive weekend event aims to foster social cohesion through diversity and promotion of biking as a sport.

Beyond entertainment, the weekend promises a major economic injection for the city.

The organisers highlighted that the influx of visitors will promote local tourism attractions, stimulate entrepreneurship, and provide networking and sales platforms for local crafters and businesses.

The purpose of the event is to uplift vulnerable members of the Kimberley community, as several organizations and households are earmarked to benefit during the mass charity drive on Saturday, which will see the donation of food hampers and school shoes.
