28th Annual Leesburg Bikefest Announces Star-Studded Lineup of Headliners
The Leesburg Bikefest, one of the largest three-day motorcycle and music festivals in the United States, is set to return to downtown Leesburg from April 25-27, 2025, and promises to be bigger and better than ever. This year’s lineup is headlined by legendary rock and Southern bands that are sure to electrify the crowds, including Dirty Honey, Fuel, Lit, and The Marshall Tucker Band.
Meet the Headliners
Fuel – Rock giants Fuel are roaring into Leesburg with their GRAMMY®-nominated sound and an exciting lineup that blends the band’s classic hits with a fresh modern edge. Reunited in 2021 with founding guitarist Carl Bell and drummer Kevin Miller, Fuel has welcomed new members Aaron Scott, Mark Klotz, and Tommy Nat. Their latest album, Ånomåly, showcases the band’s evolution while staying true to the hard rock roots that brought fans unforgettable hits like “Shimmer” and “Hemorrhage (In My Hands).”
Dirty Honey – This Los Angeles-based rock band has quickly climbed to stardom, making history as the first unsigned band to reach #1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Chart with their debut single, “When I’m Gone.” Known for their high-energy performances, Dirty Honey has toured with icons such as Guns N’ Roses and The Black Crowes, earning standing ovations and critical acclaim.
Lit – Bringing a dose of SoCal power punk, Lit is best known for defining the late ’90s with chart-topping hits like “My Own Worst Enemy” and “Miserable.” Their hard-charging energy and crowd-pleasing classics are sure to keep the Bikefest audience rocking.
The Marshall Tucker Band – Closing out the weekend on Sunday, this Southern rock institution has been entertaining fans for over five decades with timeless hits like “Can’t You See,” “Heard It in a Love Song,” and “Fire on the Mountain.” Frontman Doug Gray and the band continue to captivate audiences with their down-home sound and road-tested showmanship.
