Museum Bike Night
Museum Bike Night
May 4, 2026

All bikes unite every Thursday, May 7 through September 24, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the World’s Only Harley-Davidson Museum.

Welcoming everyone to grab their bike, join fellow riders (and non-riders) for free live music from some of Milwaukee’s favorite bands.

A chance for riders to check out each other’s drool-worthy rolling sculptures and partake in tasty outdoor food and beverage. Partners including H-D® Insurance, Rockford Fosgate® Motorcycle Audio, Michelin Motorcycle Tires, Twisted Tea® & Wisconsin Lottery® make it all happen.

Each night there are different activities, themes, and partner activations all-season long.

The Harley-Davidson Museum opened in July of 2008. In May of 2009, the first Bike Night was held following the First Rumble summer kick-off event including a bike blessing celebration.
