Join us on October 12 from 2-9 p.m. MT for the 2026 Indigenous Peoples’ Day gathering and concert at MniLuzahan Otunwahe in downtown Rapid City, SD. The event will block off Main Street Square and feature Indigenous and local food vendors, shops, and interactive booths for the whole family to enjoy. 

We will begin the day with a rally and conclude the evening with a FREE concert. We are excited to gather and celebrate the brilliance and beauty of Indigenous Peoples, from the He Sapa to Palestine. In a time when we are constantly defending our lands and peoples, we hope this day of celebration grounds us in our legacy of resistance and all that we are fighting to protect!

Lodging: If you’re planning to stay locally, please avoid booking at The Grand Gateway Hotel or hotels owned by The Retsel Corporation. NDN Collective filed a federal civil rights lawsuit in 2022 and won against the corporation after it denied service to Native Americans because of their race.

Parking: Both free and paid parking will be available downtown and in the Main St. parking garage. 

Health and COVID policy: Taking care of our relatives starts with taking care of our health. If you feel sick, have a fever, or test positive for COVID-19, please stay home to protect one another.
