Harley-Davidson Homecoming Festival 2025 Preview

Harley-Davidson is once again calling all riders and fans to the heart of motorcycle culture as the 2025 Harley-Davidson Homecoming Festival roars into Milwaukee from July 10–13. The annual celebration promises four days of unforgettable live music, high-octane experiences, and all things Harley, making it a must-attend event for enthusiasts of V-Twin motorcycles and moto-culture worldwide.
Headlining this year’s festival at Veterans Park are country superstar Chris Stapleton (Saturday, July 12) and Southern rock legend Hank Williams Jr. (Friday, July 11). Supporting acts include fan-favorites like Turnpike Troubadours, Treaty Oak Revival, Charles Wesley Godwin, Sierra Ferrell, and 49 Winchester. Two full days of live music across two stages will electrify Milwaukee’s lakefront, where ticketed guests can soak in the summer vibes with Harley fans from around the globe.

The festival kicks off Thursday, July 10, at the Harley-Davidson Museum with a free opening concert led by rock band Buckcherry. This marks the start of a city-wide takeover filled with concerts, stunt shows, motorcycle demos, and custom culture.
Beyond music, Veterans Park transforms into a high-energy hub of mototainment with freestyle motocross shows featuring Axell Hodges and Takayuki Higashino, a live tattoo parlor helmed by Luke Wessman, and the Unknown Industries Custom Bike Build Off Reveal. Attendees can enjoy the Harley-Davidson Beer Hall, food trucks, carnival games, live pinstriping, a chainsaw carving exhibit, and the largest H-D Creators Meet & Greet of the year (Friday only). Harley-Davidson Insurance also provides free motorcycle parking at this location.
