Lady Antebellum to Perform at Summerfest 2011 on June 30

The first Marcus Amphitheater Summerfest headline show for 2011 has been booked. Lady Antebellum will perform on June 30, with Darius Rucker and Thompson Square. Summerfest 2011 will run for eleven days. That leaves ten big concert announcements to go.

Summerfest 2011 June 27-July 8

Once again, Summerfest will be closed on July 4. The festival opens on June 27, and runs through July 8. Gates open at noon each day, and close at midnight.

Take the Bus To Summerfest Milwaukee

The best way to get to Summerfest is to take the bus. MCTS has Freeway Flyer routes running to the festival grounds from the park and ride lots all day. The buses run every half-hour during the day, and after 5pm the schedule changes to every quarter hour. $6 gets you a round trip adult ticket. If you are already downtown, consider hopping on the shuttle. The shuttles run east and west along Wisconsin Avenue. Be sure to look for the detour route for shuttles in 2012, as the Wisconsin Avenue bridge will be closed during the summer months.
