Save the Date for Festa Italiana, Returning to Milwaukee on July 19

Festa Italiana grants 60,000 guests access to Italian culture without the necessity of an international flight first. Each year, the celebration comes to Milwaukee for a weekend and brings with it everything from authentic food to live entertainment. The 2019 installment of Festa Italiana is slated to begin on Friday, July 19th and run through the end of the weekend.

Stop by and check out everything that the festival has to offer. Take a spin on a carnival ride or go for a sail aboard a gondola. Play some bocce ball or sit back as a spectator at the Copa Festa Italiana Futsal Tournament. Show off your singing skills as part of Italian Idol or nibble on some Italian food. Stick around for a wine tasting and fireworks—the fireworks show happens nightly after dusk falls. Admission starts at $10.
