The Viking Chapter's Annual Meet
As a chapter of the National organization (AMCA) the Viking Chapter hosts an annual meeting. This is an opportunity for members to show their motorcycles and and if they choose, enter their machines to be professionally judged. This tradition dates back to 1983 when the event was held in Farmington MN. Our present day meets call the MN State Fairgrounds home. We're always in the Progress Building. Find it at the base of the fairground's water tower. Keep scrolling for full details on the event.
2024 Meet Information
When, Where & How Much
Our National Meet takes place at the MN State Fairground's Progress Building. 1621 Randall Ave, Falcon Heights, MN 55108
2024 Theme: “Survivors" - There are many definitions of survivor motorcycles out there. Here is ours:
A survivor is an antique motorcycle that has seen use through the years, and remains roadworthy and in use today. It wears the years with dignity. It has the original paint, or custom paint typical of its day. Patina and wear are virtues; they tell its story. As do accessories and modifications respectful of the bike's original purpose. On the other hand, its overall good condition reflects the owner's affection and determination that it outlast its littermates.
Hours are 8am - 5pm Friday June 7th and 8am - 4pm Saturday June 8th.
Admission is $10.
Children 12 and younger, free admission.
