Limited-Edition 2021 Sturgis Buffalo Chip Poster
The limited-edition poster is centered around the theme of the crystal ball. 2020 was an uncertain year. Gazing into the crystal ball only showed fog, but this year is different. It shows a clear course for the future of 2021: An epic gathering of Music, Motorcycles, Freedom and Friends.
Limited-Edition 2021 Sturgis Buffalo Chip Poster
Also in line with the crystal ball theme is world-famous artist Darren McKeag’s Sturgis Rally Poster. McKeag’s crystal ball also shows a clearer future for 2021 – that the Sturgis Rally is back, and it’s back the way it should be. Only 100 Sturgis Rally Posters will be printed. These rare prints are available for purchase at Sturgis.com.
Added to the 40th Anniversary Lineup
Matt Stell
Tuesday, Aug. 10
Every legend starts out as just another artist that doesn’t fit easily into some predetermined box. And as hard as country music may try to fit Matt Stell into one of those tried-and-true boxes, it’s near impossible. Matt Stell can spin a romantic verse as easy as he can rock out an anthem. Hits like “Prayed for You” and “Everywhere But On” are only the beginning.
Cherry Bombs
Wednesday, Aug. 11
This performance from the “darlings of rock ‘n’ roll” is sure to grab the audience’s attention and not let go. Anything goes when the Cherry Bombs take over the stage with aerial stunts, fire arts, acrobatics and tantalizing dance choreography. The Cherry Bombs open up the evening entertainment on Aug. 11 prior to Corey Taylor and ZZ Top.
BlueFrog Band
Thursday, Aug. 12
Don’t let the name fool you. The BlueFrog is a nickname Patrick Ellis earned from his fans who knew he was a “Frogman” and a “Harmonica” player. Ellis is a former Navy SEAL Master Chief who has toured as an entertainer for the U.S.O. and played numerous festivals, stages, and events including fundraisers for fellow military veterans. See BlueFrog’s tribute to the music that made America great during the 30th annual Buffalo Chip Freedom Celebration.
Thunderosa
Friday, Aug. 6 – Wednesday Aug. 11
Thunderosa is laying down six days of original Texas stomp during the 2021 Sturgis Rally. After nearly 25 years of touring regionally, nationally and internationally, this road-worn Southern speed-blues sensation is bringing their raucous and unrelenting stage show to the Largest Music Festival in Motorcycling with shows on the Main Stage, Bikini Beach Stage and Big Engine Bar Stage.
BC & The Big Rig
Saturday, Aug. 7 – Saturday, Aug. 14
Faith in the hard-working American spirit will be renewed when BC & The Big Rig blend country and rock elements with touches of folk storytelling during the Buffalo Chip’s music festival. With influences ranging from Merle Haggard and Johnny Cash to Black Crowes and Roger Clyne, this Tulsa-based group fits right in at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip. Catch their shows on the Main Stage, Bikini Beach Stage and Big Engine Bar Stage.
BC & Big Skillet
Friday, Aug. 7 – Saturday, Aug. 14
Big Skillet is cookin’ up a crock full of concerts at the Chip that rally-goers will never be able to get enough of. Party down with great classic rock, R&B, blues, funk and modern country when this Missouri-based quartet joins the Buffalo Chip Official Sturgis Rally Kickoff Party. There will be plenty of chances to come back for seconds on both the Bikini Beach and Big Engine Bar Stages.
DJ Hulio
Friday, Aug. 6 – Saturday, Aug. 14
Bumpin’ beats, original remixes and masterful mashups of hit songs will have the night owls dancing until the wee hours of the morning thanks to DJ Hulio. This mix master will be keeping your party going nightly by performing high-octane live sets throughout the festival at Club Chip between and after shows on the main stage. Performances from the world’s top entertainers are just a part of what the Sturgis Buffalo Chip has in store for its 40th Anniversary in 2021. Visitors will have the opportunity to experience countless events, including legendary rides, powerful freedom celebrations, top-tier bike shows, white-knuckle racing events and so much more.
