Sturgis Mayor Leah Brown has expressed that they are anticipating a crowd as big as seven thousand people.

The event is much awaited by locals and merchants alike. Mayor Brown, sharing her excitement about the incoming crowd and vendors, mentioned, “We’ve got some from North Carolina, Kentucky, and of course here in Mississippi, Louisiana.

One of the most anticipated parts of the Little Sturgis Rally is the annual dinner ride.
