SPEND YOUR SUMMERS WITH US! Every year on Wednesday from July to August. Happy Hour starts at 5pm, concerts at 6!​

Washington Park Wednesdays hosts innovative local bands, Milwaukee's finest food trucks, and activities sure to energize and entertain will fill the park each Wednesday.  Theme nights promise diverse pairings of music, art, and fun with outstanding regional talent. 

There is parking for those who require extra assistance, via the Lloyd Street entrance. Parking is also available on Olmsted Blvd, by the splash pad, and on the street. We ask that able concertgoers refrain from parking in the lot closest to the bandshell, leaving it for those who need it.
