Nevada will welcome riders on Wednesday, July 22, 2026!
We are expecting 20,000 registered riders and many more thousands of unregistered bikers headed to our area. Nevada has been selected as a meeting town, which means riders will not just be passing through. They will be stopping here from approximately 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., with RAGBRAI setting up bike shops and medical trailers in town. Nevada will serve as a lunchtime festival destination for the day. Riders will enter town from the north on S-14 and exit town on Lincoln Highway headed east.
RAGBRAI specifically requested that the festival (of having riders come through town) take place in our Downtown District. They love the history, charm, and story of our community. This is our moment to showcase it.
