Summerfest is billed as one of the biggest and best live music festivals in the world.
Happens once a year for ten days starting today. Takes place on Milwaukees lake front (Lake Michigan) and features street performers, magicians, comedians and the usual headliners.
Here is an alphabetical list of the booked artists.
New this year…bar coded tickets will be given out for free general admission lawn seats to select shows. Gone are the days of the easy-to-wash-off-and-ruining-your-night hand stamp.
