Check out our tips for heading down to the lakefront this summer:

  • Plan and prepare your visit ahead of time. Know where you are going.
  • Shuttle in. There is parking available on and near the grounds, but we’ve been stuck in a traffic jam when the festival closes where it has taken us an hour to move a mile. Beat the traffic and shuttle in from the many area park and rides.
    • Since we are coming from Lake Country, we in previous years, liked to park at the Delafield/Naga-waukee Ice Arena park and ride. However, this year the 5 bus stops are within Milwaukee County.
    • There are many convenient transportation choices including Milwaukee County Transit (MCTS) Freeway Flyers, the new BRT CONNECT 1 route, Ride Share, Bar Busses, The Hop, and more!
    • See the schedule
    • Call (262) 542-8861 for more information.
  • If riding the bus in isn’t your style, you can Uber as well to avoid driving in.
    • The main Uber Zone is located right outside of the Mid Gate at E. Chicago St. & N. Jackson St.
  • BACKPACKS or bags larger than 9x10x12 are not allowed and all bags will be searched.
    • If you are heading down with other adults, just bring the necessities and leave your purse/bag at home.
    • If you are heading down with family and need a diaper bag, again sort through it and only bring what is absolutely necessary. Also measure to ensure it is smaller than 9*10*12.

    Just wondering if they have a bus from goerkes corner park and ride in waukesha this year to summerfest 2022. They have in the past just not finding any info. If so do u have to buy tickets ahead of time? How much is round trip? What time do they start? What time does last bus leave grounds. Come every half hour?

        Ya know that kinda sucks for people who live outside milwaukee and don’t want to drink and drive. I mean they want people to be safe. I think they need to reevaluate this for next year because what take a uber down to shuttle costs money Then bus cost money Then uber home costs money Then summerfest isn’t cheap. Do u know what they r doing for state fair?
