As always, bigger is better. CajunFest moves to roomier digs at State Fair Park. Mark down these dates. Unpack those walking shoes and your fanny pack.
Summer waits for no one.
Festivities begin at noon June 4 with a fountain of color on the Milwaukee River followed by the Great Paddle-Off paddleboat race between politicians and media types. In its 19th year, the Miller Lite Ride for the Arts has become one of the largest recreational bike rides in the nation, with 12,000 participants. The post-ride Finish Line Party at Maier Festival Park includes music by the Boogie Men and a display of kids' art. Last year's success moved this year's festival to the 35-acre infield site at State Fair Park. Parking is free.
