Holy cow.

That was our first thought after taking a peek at Summerfest’s truly staggering 2023 lineup made up of over 100 of the biggest artists in country, rock, R&B, hip-hop and EDM.

Taking place over three weekends in Milwaukee, WI, just a few of the top spots on the bill this year belong to major headliners like Eric Church, Zac Brown Band, Zach Bryan, Dave Matthews Band and James Taylor with Sheryl Crow.

They’ll be joined by heavy hitters like Earth Wind and Fire, The Avett Brothers, Odesza, Imagine Dragons and Elvis Costello.

Heck, even a few surprise groups from yesterday like A Flock of Seagulls, Smokey Robinson, Three 6 Mafia, Cypress Hill and Vanilla Fudge will be on hand to celebrate the annual festival’s 55th anniversary.

Plus, 38 Special, Spin Doctors, Styx, Smash Mouth and Wang Chung too.

Sorry — we couldn’t help ourselves. There’s just so much to be excited about.

And if you want tickets to individual concerts, we’re here to lend a helping hand.

Clicking into the American Family Insurance Amphitheater or BMO Harris Pavilion venue pages on Vivid Seats will take you to a number of shows to choose from, not just for Summerfest but all year long.
