This year’s Wisconsin Fest lineup tightens the focus a bit, with five genre-themed showcases over three nights featuring a cross-section of Badger State favorites. Hip-hop (Jan. 18, High Noon) features rare Madison visits by Milwaukeeans King Kamonzi (of Kali Tribe) and Wave Chapelle; punk (Jan. 17, High Noon) is headlined by veterans Direct Hit!; a funk triple bill (Jan. 11, Majestic) includes Madison legends the Funkee JBeez; and returning to anchor lineups are Horseshoes and Hand Grenades (bluegrass, Jan. 18, Sylvee) and The Faith Hills Have Eyes (metal, Jan. 11, High Noon). The series is sponsored by Isthmus; find the full lineups and tickets at fpc-live.com/wisconsin-fest-2025.
Wisconsin Hip-Hop Fest, hosted by Gary Knowledge. $20 ($15 adv.).
media release: Starting in 2013, Wisconsin Fest has allowed us to showcase the state’s diverse musical artistry that makes us prouder than any beer or cheese ever could. Now in its 12th year, the Fests have expanded to five unique genres across three Madison, WI venues – The Sylvee, Majestic Theatre and High Noon Saloon.
