Returning this year is the BMO Harris Pavilion’s easy-in-theory-but-sometimes-frustrating-in-practice ticketing system. We’ll let Summerfest explain:

Summerfest will once again offer a seating option at the BMO Harris Pavilion with Miller Lite for all headlining performances. This policy offers Summerfest fans the choice of free general admission seats or reserved seats available for purchase. All seats will be clearly marked within the venue.

• FREE Festival Seating:
The majority of seating in the BMO Harris Pavilion will be available FREE to the public on a first come, first served basis, the day of the show. Similar to other Summerfest stages, fans may occupy seats as they are available from the time Summerfest gates open.

• Advance Purchase Tickets:
A select number of reserved tickets will be available for each headlining concert at the BMO Harris Pavilion with Miller Lite. Fans may purchase a ticket for the headlining performance for $30.00 per concert, plus fees. Each reserved ticket includes admission to Summerfest on the day of the performance. Tickets go on sale May 13 – 17, 2019 and are available through Ticketmaster.com or in person at the Summerfest Box Office.
