ABATE of Indiana's annual Boogie is the Midwest's longest-running grassroots motorcycle festival, held each July at Lawrence County Recreational Park, 99 Moore Lane, Springville, Indiana 47462. The 2026 event is the 46th annual, confirming continuous annual scheduling since 1981. Features include live music across multiple stages, a bike show, a scenic group ride, field events, mini bike games, tattoo and arm wrestling contests, and camping on site. Adults 18+ only. All proceeds support ABATE of Indiana's motorcycle safety education and rider-rights advocacy.

A grassroots, rider-organized rally running since 1981, the Boogie puts your admission dollar directly toward motorcycle safety education and rider-rights advocacy — making it one of the few Midwest rallies where attending is also a form of participation in the cause.

ABATE of Indiana has been running the Boogie as its annual state fundraiser at Lawrence County Recreational Park in Springville, Indiana since 1981. The 2026 edition is the 46th annual. The organization behind it — ABATE, which stands for American Bikers Aimed Toward Education — is a not-for-profit group whose stated mission is to promote safety, protect rights, and help others, and it describes itself as the nation's largest state motorcyclists' rights organization.

The event runs four days in July and draws riders from across the country. On the ground you can expect live music across multiple stages, a ride-in bike show, a scenic group ride, field events, mini bike games, a swap meet, and tattoo and arm wrestling contests. On-site tent camping and showers are included in admission, and the property runs a shuttle to help move gear from the parking area to campsites.

Admission is open to the public — ABATE membership is not required — but attendees must be 18 or older with valid ID. No pets are allowed on the grounds. All proceeds support ABATE of Indiana's motorcycle safety, education, and rider-rights work. A wristband-matching system is used for motorcycle security: no bike leaves the property unless the bike's number matches the rider's wristband.
