- Kanye West–June 30th
Critically acclaimed rapper Kanye West has generated buzz in the past few years with controversial comments and actions, but West is back on the scene with a brand new album. He’s an excellent performer with an eclectic array of songs. This will be a high energy show featuring new songs as well as top hits from the past few years. Get your Kanye West tickets here.
- Toby Keith–July 1st
Country fans will not one to miss this show! Country superstar Toby Keith will dazzle fans with hits from his latest album, Bullets in the Gun. I hear that Keith’s show will even include pyrotechnics. Get your Toby Keith tickets here.
- Jason Mraz w/ Guster–July 2nd
Guster has long been a staple of the Summerfest lineup, so it’s good to see them as the opening band for Jason Mraz at the Marcus Amphitheater. This alt rock band will be a nice compliment to Jason Mraz. Jason Mraz is a very versatile performer as his songs are influenced by reggae, soul, hip-hop, pop, and folk to name a few.
