Fourth of July in Milwaukee

Thursday July 2, 2009

It's going to be a beautiful Fourth of July in Milwaukee, and there is plenty going on around town. Still not sure what to do or where to go? Here's a rundown of just a few of the many events the weekend has to offer:

  • Celebrate Independence day in Bay View at PBRFest, a free street festival featuring music, such as Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks, and -- what else -- PBR for $2.

  • Of course, there's also always Summerfest, the world's largest music festival, going strong straight through Sunday.

  • And don't forget about Fireworks! Milwaukee gets serious when it comes to fireworks. Find a display near you.

(1) MaryAnne Stephens says:

Just a “heads up” — the dates for Serbian Days at St. Sava Cathedral are posted incorrectly – the dates are August 28,29,30, NOT the week earlier as published. Call the church office (414) 545-4080 to confirm.
Thanks!
