The annual event includes plenty of live entertainment, live music, big money poker runs, tons of bikes and plenty of contests to keep you entertained all weekend long. The biker fun begins in Vegas on Thursday, Sept. 27 but actually revs up on Wednesday with the Kick Off Party at Victorville Motorcycle Center in Victorville, California.

Thursday will also offer Sport Bike Free Style Stunt Show, Boxing Demonstrations, a Welcome Party and 1st Annual Strip Ride For Charity that benefits the Wounded Warrior Project.

On Friday, head to Golden Nugget for a Poker Run that takes you through scenic Las Vegas with a chance to win $1,000 cash prizes if you have the best hand. There is also the World’s Strongest Biker Competition for men who swear they are stronger than you with competition categories that include tire carry, keg carry and stamina lift and a chance to win $300 in cash. Friday also brings in a Custom Bike Show, PowerSport Institute Bike Build/Display and the Rock Festival Concert at Mandalay Bay featuring Shinedown, Godsmack, Staind, Hellyeah, and Adelitas Way.

And as if that wasn’t enough to do during a three-day weekend, bikers can also take a break from the Strip and enjoy scenic rides through Nevada on your way to the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead and more. 

So, are you ready for one crazy weekend of live concerts, big money Poker Runs, tons of bikes and bikers and plenty of chances to win thousands in cash?  If you said yes don’t miss Las Vegas BikeFest beginning Thursday, Sept. 27 through Sunday, Sept. 30 throughout Las Vegas.
