EVENT DETAILS

OC Rock & Ride — running September 9–13, 2026 — is a bold new chapter in the legacy of Ocean City BikeFest. Rebranded and revitalized by local promoters, this rally embraces the traditions that riders cherish while introducing modern touches to elevate the experience. Hosted at Ocean City’s scenic Inlet (809 South Atlantic Avenue, Ocean City, MD 21842) and the Roland E. Powell Convention Center (4001 Coastal Highway, Ocean City, MD 21842), the event features live music, custom motorcycle displays, vendor fairs, charity rides, poker runs, factory demos, stunt shows, and more.

 

Headlining performances (Bands TBD) always bring high-energy concerts alongside the roar of thousands of motorcycles cruising Coastal Highway and Route 50. Visitors will find a dynamic blend of longtime rally traditions—like vendor villages and beachside cruising—with fresh programming and staging that appeals to both veteran riders and newcomers.

 

Our team is made up of Ocean City locals dedicated to preserving the spirit of the rally while ensuring its future viability, OC Rock & Ride is a hometown initiative with broader community appeal. Whether you come for the bikes, the music, or the coastal camaraderie, this rally embodies the evolving energy of the East Coast’s largest motorcycle rally.
