Milwaukee may be a large city, but it still retains those little quirks that remind you how community-oriented this city can still be. A great example of this is the church festival phenomenon -- there is literally a church festival (or five) on any given weekend. Stop by any of the festivals on this list for a fun afternoon of food, games, music and more.

Updated for 2012! Dates marked with * are based on timing of prior years' festivals -- please check back to confirm dates later in the season.
