Rest up, because the 11 busiest days for live music in Milwaukee are upon us. Each summer, Summerfest brings hundreds of bands to the city for a marathon week and a half party, and this year’s lineup is one of the festival’s best ever, featuring a host of world-renowned headliners. Here at the Shepherd, we want to do our part to make sure you don’t miss anything. On Milwaukee newsstands from June 18-24, our annual Summerfest Guide contains complete daily schedules, visitor information and a rundown of admission promotions—everything you need to navigate the Big Gig.
