Harley-Davidson plotted six routes, each starting from the furthest reaches of North America and leading to Milwaukee, with a planned arrival on July 12, to help riders plan their expedition.

Festival events will take place at venues across the Milwaukee area, including the Harley-Davidson Museum, Harley-Davidson Powertrain Operations and local Harley-Davidson dealerships.

Each daily ride begins and ends at a Harley-Davidson dealership, with a mid-day stop giving riders an opportunity to mingle with other riders, chat with local staff, fuel up at food trucks and get a bike checked out. Riders can join at any point along the route and depart at any time each day.

The six routes include:

  • Southwest Route: Departs July 4; nine days and 2,930 miles
  • Northwest Route: Departs July 4; nine days and 2,460 miles
  • Northeast Route: Departs July 7; six days and 1,363 miles
  • Southeast Route: Departs July 6; seven days and 1,853 miles
  • Canada East Route: Departs July 5; eight days and 1,870 miles
  • Canada West Route: Departs July 5; eight days and 2,423 miles

Cody Jinks, Social Distortion, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Phantogram, White Reaper and KennyHoopla are also slated to perform during the weekend.
