Harley-Davidson Homecoming Milwaukee Concerts Canceled July 11 Tornado Warning

The Harley-Davidson Homecoming concerts at Milwaukee's Veterans Park on July 11, 2025, were canceled around 6 p.m. due to severe weather and a tornado warning, leading to the evacuation of festivalgoers and staff as a safety measure. Only four of the nine scheduled acts, including Ole 60, performed before the shutdown, with headliners like Hank Williams Jr., Treaty Oak Revival, and Charles Wesley Godwin unable to take the stage. Despite the cancellation, the July 12 concerts, featuring Chris Stapleton, Sierra Ferrell, Turnpike Troubadours, and Jason Momoa's band Oof Tatata, proceeded as planned, with all tickets sold out. Harley-Davidson announced refunds for July 11 ticket holders and partial refunds for two-day pass holders purchased through the primary ticket seller. The Homecoming event includes a range of activities beyond concerts, such as motorcycle rides, workshops, and vendor booths, celebrating the Harley-Davidson brand and community spirit. Organizers emphasized that safety was the top priority in the decision to cancel the first day, while encouraging fans to enjoy the remaining festival events through July 13 across various Milwaukee locations.
