Festivals
Milwaukee is known for its festivals. Once the weather breaks, Milwaukeeans suddenly appear en masse walking, running, and biking as though awakening from a long winter’s nap. This marries perfectly with festival season and the North Shore hosts its own line-up of festivities. Check our Calendar for dates and details along with new festivals not listed below.
