The Summer Soulstice Music Festival has been a part of the East Side for nearly two decades, annually ringing in the official start to summer with local music, arts and attractions. This year’s festival will be held on Saturday, June 23 from noon-midnight.
“The East Side has always been the crossroads of Milwaukee and ahead-of-the-curve on what has made Milwaukee special,” Kristin Godfrey, executive director of the East Side business improvement district said in a press release (making sure to subtly plug the new Crossroads Collective food hall that was recently announced in the district). “We are so proud to present our 18th Summer Soulstice and are certain that this year’s festival will be our best ever.”
