BMO Harris Pavilion Shows in Milwaukee

The BMO Harris Pavilion has a full concert schedule set for the 2026 run of shows. This is the year to head to the Summerfest grounds for great music and entertainment. There will be at least eleven shows at this iconic pavilion. Opening the season will be a triple-bill featuring Parker McCollum, Max McNown, and Kassi Ashton. The final show currently scheduled will be Empire of the Sun on August 18.

During the Summerfest run of dates, the opening show will be Styx. The final date during Summerfest will be Sam Barber. After Summerfest closes for the season, there are a pair of great live performers to consider! Keep in mind that during Summerfest, seating at the BMO Harris Pavilion is reserved.

BMO Harris Pavilion History & Design

This award-winning, outdoor Milwaukee venue was completed in 2012. It’s one of the many stages on the Summerfest grounds, and it’s located just north of the American Family Insurance amphitheater. It’s one of only two venues that allow for reserved seating during Summerfest performances. The pavilion seats 5000 people, with room for much more if you add the standing room areas behind the assigned seats. Some shows have assigned seats throughout the venue, whereas other, less popular events may list the center sections as reserved. ADA seating can be found in nine separate areas in the venue.

The BMO Harris Pavilion is nearly 50,000 square feet in area, with grand views of Lake Michigan and the Milwaukee skyline for ticket holders that sit in sections to the right of the stage. The pavilion can be accessed from any festival entrance, but for shows that occur before or after Summerfest, try entering the south gates to make your journey to your seats as short as possible.
