Ames RAGBRAI entertainment
A daylong party in Ames, with thousands of our closest bicycle-riding friends! Head to downtown Ames for all the excitement: Food trucks, two stages, beer tents, and more. Arena band Hairball headlines on the main stage at 8:30 p.m.!
Called a “bombastic celebration of arena rock,” Hairball is like 20 concerts in one night. The lights, sound, smoke, fire, bombs, and screaming fans is a rock’n’roll experience you won’t soon forget. Hairball is part of the weeklong RAGBRAI 2023 Concert Series across the state of Iowa.
