About Community Yard Sales
The Spring and Fall Sturgis Community Yard Sales are organized by the Sturgis Area Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau on the Saturday preceding the first full week of May, and the Saturday preceding the first full week of October annually. Anyone in the Sturgis area can opt to participate in the event - sale registrations are collected at the Chamber and compiled onto a map, which is then dispersed electronically and in print to the general public!
This event averages over 50 sales per event each year and historically has boasted extremely high attendance from shoppers! Sturgis residents look forward to this city-wide activity twice every year, and visitors will arrive from across the region to peruse the sale locations. Items available range widely from apparel and home goods to sporting equipment, books, antiques, and even vehicles! Businesses can also register to participate, featuring sidewalk sales and excess merchandise.
These events are organized by the Sturgis Area Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Bureau as a fundraiser to support our free community events and initiatives. We are a 501(c)6 nonprofit.
