Get ready for three days of motorcycle fun in Milwaukee, as the annual Mama Tried show is set for its 2025 event running Feb. 22-23 at the historic Eagles Club. It always brings out a fascinating array of custom builds of all kinds.
Not to be missed is the Flat Out Friday race action on Feb. 21, which is an indoor flat-track race at the Fiserv Forum on a Dr. Pepper syrup-coated concrete track. The most entertaining classes are usually the Hooligan class for street-legal motorcycles and the Goofball class, where almost anything with two wheels are allowed and costumes are mandatory. Admission is $20.
The Mama Tried show takes place over the weekend at the spectacular Eagles Ballroom that was built in 1926 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Buildings. A two-day general admission pass costs $40. Saturday-only passes are priced at $25, while a Sunday pass is $20. Kids 5 and under and military vets get in free. VIP passes include entry for both days and access to a special lounge and complimentary drinks and snacks for $200.
Each ticket provides entry to a raffle giving away a motorcycle trip to Nepal from Motorcycle Sherpa. Also on tap is a raffle for the 2025 Mama Tried Show Harley-Davidson “Mystery Ship” Giveaway Bike. A 2025 edition sticker costs $30 and gives you a chance to win a tricked-out bagger that’s under construction and will be revealed at the show.
