California Ducati Week powered by Ducati Official Clubs (CADW) is the annual gathering of California’s Ducati Official Clubs. It was created to do for the state what World Ducati Week does for the brand: put every club in one place for a few days of riding and let the community do the rest.

DROC co-organizes it. The first edition, in September 2025, brought 11 Ducati Official Clubs to Pismo Beach from a community of more than 2,300 riders, for four days of coastal and canyon rides, a Hearst Castle tour, a Paso Robles winery tour, a gala dinner, and sessions with Ducati North America executives including CEO Jason Chinnock.

It worked well enough that Ducati Official Clubs worldwide gave DROC and Bay Area DOC a shared award for it. See the December 2025 press release.

What happens during the week

• Curated coastal and canyon rides, run by the clubs that know those roads.
• Organized tours and activities away from the bikes.
• A gala dinner and social gatherings across the four days.
• Sponsor showcases and sessions on safety and rider technology.
• Time with Ducati North America, which is rare outside a factory event.

Who can come

Members of any Ducati Official Club, and invited guests. If you are not in a club yet and you ride a Ducati in Southern California, joining DROC is the route in.
