October 9 - 12, 2025
>>> 11th Annual! <<<
It is back for the eleventh year in a row! With internationally acclaimed bands and special guest appearances, this one promises to be bigger and better than the first ten!
Come enjoy concerts on Town Hill, vendors, bike shows and more in the beautiful setting of Colonial Beach - Virginia's "Potomac River Playground"
All American Harley-Davidson were one of the main sponsors. They along with Ripley formerly from 97.7 The Rocket radio station had discussed the idea in 2013 while dining at High Tides Restaurant, and I'm so glad they did!
Our area has been and continues to be a favorite destination for bikers, with the beaches, historical sites, great waterfront dining spots, tiki bars with live music, boating and fishing activities and many lodging options. Visitors can enjoy a fun stay in our picturesque riverside resort town.
We even used to be home to The Broken Chain motorcycle shop.
No bike? No problem. Here's one for sale locally.
