Silver City Fest

For 15 years, Silver City Fest has been more than a neighborhood festival, it’s a celebration of the people, businesses, and community spirit that make Silver City such a special place to call home. This year, that celebration carries even greater meaning.

As National Avenue undergoes a major reconstruction project, our local businesses have faced months of construction, detours, and reduced visibility. While the work will create a stronger corridor for the future, we know the road has not been easy. That’s why this year’s Silver City Fest is more than a day of fun, it’s an opportunity for our community to come together and support our neighborhood businesses.

To accommodate construction, Silver City Fest is moving to Pierce Street this year, creating a new gathering space while keeping the heart of the festival exactly where it belongs, in the Silver City neighborhood. We invite neighbors from across Milwaukee to join us in celebrating everything that makes this community vibrant while supporting our local businesses, artists and vendors.

Whether you’ve attended every festival or this will be your first, there’s never been a more important year to be part of Silver City Fest. Every visit, every meal purchased, every vendor supported, and every conversation shared helps strengthen the businesses and neighbors that make this community thrive.

Join us on Saturday, September 12, from Noon to 5:00pm at 3501 W. Pierce Street for an afternoon of live music, local food, artists and makers, family activities, interactive art, and community celebration. We’re excited to welcome Tlalok y Su Orquesta as this year’s headlining performer, along with an incredible lineup of local entertainment throughout the day.

This is a free, family-friendly event, come celebrate, connect with neighbors, and show your support for the businesses that make Silver City a place we’re all proud to call home.
