Isthmus' 2022 Madison summer music, theater and dance calendar

More than just fairs and festivals take place in the great outdoors. Summer in Wisconsin brings a wealth of recurring concert series and other annual happenings to parks and other public spaces, mostly free to attend. During our era of COVID, some theater and dance performances have also moved to outside spaces.

Here's what we have heard about around Madison, Dane County and the state (updates will be forthcoming as new events are announced). Unlike our related festivals calendar (which is listed chronologically), these series, fests and performances are listed alphabetically, by event or company name; the theater and dance list follows the music list. Before heading to any event, it's advisable to check websites and social media for any COVID-related updates and safety protocols. Have some fun this summer, and stay safe out there.
