Hollister Independence Rally 2022
The Hollister City Council voted to
cancel the 2022 Hollister Independence Day Rally scheduled for July 1
- 3. The reason given was the inability to secure additional police
The Hollister Rally began in 1947. It is believed to be
the birth place of the American Biker and was the inspiration for the
powerful 1953 cult classic movie, The Wild One, starring Marlon Brando
and Lee Marvin. The cast, adorned in leather jackets, introduced hipster
biker phrases to movie audiences and defined biker fashion for decades
to come. The movie is considered a cultural milestone and motorcycle enthusiasts
return to Hollister every 4th of July weekend to celebrate this cultural
icon.
The epicenter of the Independence Rally is San Benito
Street in downtown Hollister. The rally features magnificent motorcycles,
live music, vendors selling everything related to motorcycles, festival
foods, free limited motorcycle parking on the main street. The event is
free and open to the public.
Vendor, sponsor and VIP opportunities are available from
Roadshows, Inc. by calling 775-690-2035 or email to admin@roadshowsreno.com.
