Puerto Rican Festival of Wisconsin
The 12th Annual Puerto Rican Festival of Wisconsin presented by the Milwaukee Brewers and U.S. Bank is officially headed to Milwaukee’s iconic Henry Maier Festival Park on Sunday, September 21, 2025. The festival will run from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. BRINGING PUERTO RICO TO MILWAUKEE The Puerto Rican Festival of Wisconsin began in 2013 under the 35th Street bridge with just a few hundred guests and local vendors. Each year, it has grown in size and impact, attracting visitors and food vendors from across the country. Known as the largest Puerto Rican celebration in the state, the festival will bring Puerto Rico to Milwaukee for a one-day event. Attendees can expect a full day of live music, dance, authentic food, cooking classes, dance classes, artisan vendors, a kids zone, and cultural showcases. Join us as we celebrate culture, music, and unity at the lakefront. Tickets go on sale on our website on May 5th and are $15 for adults and $5 for children age 12 and under.
