This year’s Beet Street is happening on Saturday, October 5th!
The annual, family-friendly celebration takes over the 2400 block of S. Wentworth Avenue between Cactus Club (Russell Ave) and Goodkind (Potter Ave) to celebrate music, food, art, and community. Our quiet tree-lined street will transform into a bustling array of artists and small, independent businesses. The block is bookended with local food trucks and a large stage showcasing local, national, and international musicians. Between the music and the food, find:
– Nonprofit/community organization tables
– Environmental justice organizers
– Voter registrants
– The Bay View Historical Society
– Punk rock rummage sale
– Maker market
– Photo booths
– A music video showcase that screens inside Cactus Club
– A juried pie contest, “The Great Midwestern Pie Championship” at Palomino
This year’s main stage will feature memorable sets from Habibi, Graham Hunt, T!ny, MoCity, Phif, Eli $tones, Dejah’E, Participants and more.
Bringing together over 3,000 attendees from Milwaukee and beyond, Beet Street is the celebratory culmination of our year-round Cactus+ programming: uplifting the intersections of intergenerational art and community building.
