Each August since 2016, Milwaukee Fringe Festival has showcased live acts from the worlds of theater, music, dance, and visual art downtown. Following the upstart festival’s encouraging first few years, organizers decided to bring Fringe Fest back for another installment in 2021.

In addition to an array of artists performing at Marcus Center’s Peck Pavilion stage and on the venue’s other revamped outdoor spaces on Saturday, August 28, there will also be virtual performances occurring throughout the month of August.
