Summerfest

In Wisconsin we are proud of our beer, brats, cheese and Packers, but we also love our music. Once again the World's Largest Music Festival, Summerfest, will be held at Henry Maier Festival Park (the Summerfest Grounds) on Milwaukee's lakefront June 25th-29th and July 1st-6th.

Headliners include Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, Brad Paisley, the Zac Brown Band and Usher. But if you only visit the main stage you'll miss the real fun seeing local and regional musicians as well as groups from all over the world who come to preform. As their website says "11 Days. 11 Stages. Over 800 acts. 900,000 of your closest friends."
