500+ Women Ride Into Wichita Falls for Ladies in Leather
More than 500 women from across the country rolled into Wichita Falls for the 8th Annual Ladies in Leather Motorcycle Parade & Rally, and they brought one heck of a weekend with them.
The annual traveling rally selected Wichita Falls as its 2026 host, with four days of events centered around Kay Yeager Coliseum and activities throughout the city.
There were motorcycles of every kind, live music, vendors, stunt shows, motorcycle games, a bike show and plenty of personality. Women of all ages and from all walks of life came together over a shared love of riding, and the energy they brought to Wichita Falls was contagious.
Saturday’s signature all-female motorcycle parade put more than 500 riders on the streets of Wichita Falls at once. It was loud, colorful and impossible not to smile through.
But what made Ladies in Leather especially memorable wasn’t just what they came here to do. It was what they chose to do while they were here.
Alongside a packed weekend of events, Ladies in Leather hosted a blood drive and organized “Stuff Your Saddlebags,” collecting donations for the Wichita Falls Area Food Bank. They came to Wichita Falls to ride, connect and have a good time, and still made giving back to their host community part of the weekend.
And there was one connection we couldn’t have planned any better.
The heart of the rally was Kay Yeager Coliseum, named for the first woman to serve as mayor of Wichita Falls. Seeing that building filled with hundreds of women from across the country felt pretty fitting.
Ladies in Leather, you were loud, you were colorful, you were generous, and you were an absolute blast to host.
Wichita Falls would welcome you back anytime.
