We present a theoretical study of Weiss oscillations in magnetoconductivity of bilayer graphene. Bilayer graphene in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field and a unidirectional weak electric modulation is considered.We determine the $\sigma_{yy}$ component of the magnetoconductivity tensor for this system which is shown to exhibit Weiss oscillations. We show that Weiss oscillations in the magnetoconductivity of bilayer graphene are enhanced and more robust with temperature compared to those in conventional two-dimensional electron gas systems whereas they are less robust with temperature compared to monolayer graphene. In addition, we also find phase differences of $\pi$ and $2\pi$ in the magnetoconductivity oscillations compared to monolayer graphene and conventional 2DEG system which arises due to the chiral nature of quasiparticles in graphene.
