More Than Music
As if more music than any one person can listen to wasn’t enough, Summerfest has a whole lot more to offer. A variety of popular Milwaukee restaurants are on-site offering tasty treats to keep you fueled up and ready to rock, and you can shop for everything from music-themed jewelry to puppets at unique vendors at four shopping marketplaces. The Northwestern Mutual Community Park will keep kids enraptured all day, with performances by magicians, jugglers, dance groups, puppets, and more.
Spend the day people-watching at the lakefront, shopping, or enjoying local and emerging artists on the grounds stages – the headliners start at 8 and 10 p.m. The American Family Insurance Amphitheater will be the star of the show complete with improved sight lines, new food and beverage offerings and more, the Amphitheater will make cheering for an encore or singing along to your favorite song more comfortable and accessible than ever before.
There’s a reason that Summerfest is a Milwaukee tradition and the highlight of the summer for both locals and visitors – it’s a festival experience like no other!
