The party of the summer takes place at the Harley-Davidson Museum® over Rally weekend
Plus, a new exhibit and your last chance to catch “Daredevils” highlight a September to remember
Milwaukee, USA (Aug 29, 2019) – Make plans to join the Harley-Davidson Museum Aug. 29 – Sept. 1 during Rally Weekend for free live entertainment from chart-topping musicians, stunt shows, demo rides of select 2020 motorcycles, LiveWire Jumpstart experiences, the H-D Museum’s Annual Custom Bike Show, acres and acres of motorcycle thrills, and miles and miles of rolling sculptures.
And this weekend marks one of the last chances to see the scintillating “Daredevils” exhibit (closing Sept. 8) while gallery space is cleared away for the arrival of “Building a Milwaukee Icon: Harley-Davidson’s Juneau Avenue Factory,” opening Sept. 6. Plus, the life-size LEGO® Harley-Davidson® Fat Boy® is reigning supreme as Milwaukee’s must-see attraction and it’s found only at the H-D Museum.
