Big River Rally is an AWESOME weekend-long motorcycle-centric event. There is plenty to do – stunt shows, bike shows, GREAT music, vendors, awesome food, beer, and more. You should probably just come check it out.
BRR takes place at the Oktoberfest Grounds in La Crosse, WI. 2025 dates TBA.....

Yes, you can..... but, in order to streamline the entry process, we do recommend getting them AHEAD of the event. You can get them at this link, it's super easy: https://tickets.aroundrivercity.com/events/big-river-rally-2024-8-16-2024
No, not on-site. HOWEVER, check out our Places To Stay page for some good spots in the area!
Everything OUTSIDE of the vendors will be cashless. Merch, beer, tickets bought on-site - all cashless. Vendors have the freedom to accept whatever forms of payment they prefer.
Great question - we've got a map for you! Check out parking options below.
Your ticket covers entry into the grounds for BOTH. DAYS. How awesome is that??
You do NOT need to print out your ticket - but you can if you'd like. We have scanners that can scan your phone or a printed ticket.
That's awesome - we can't wait to see it!! If you haven't already, you'll get an email from doug@bigriverrally.com with more information. Feel free to reach out to that email with questions as well!

However, the vendors, bike show, and stunt shows are totally free of charge during the day on Saturday (ticketing starts at 4:00pm), and your kids are more than welcome to attend those!
No, tickets to the Veterans Breakfast are separate from your BRR ticket - however, they are just $10 a piece, so learn more about it and get tickets here!
NO! Everything before 4:00 pm on both days is FREE and open to the public. Come enjoy the vendors, stunt shows, and bike show all you want! However, tickets will be required upon entry at 4:00 pm when the music begins.
