The Big Gig is back ... one more time!

Indeed, just as the echoes of the second weekend finally died down, Summerfest is returning to the stage, rocking out one final three-day encore with superstars like Maroon 5, Lil Uzi Vert and many more going live from the lakefront. And to help make sure you get the most out of the world's biggest music festival, here's the full guide to the third and final weekend of Summerfest – from all the acts taking the spotlight, to ways to get into the Big Gig for tiny prices, and special events and deals all across the grounds. 

Dive into this guide before the stage-diving begins each day – and we'll see you down at the Big Gig! (And speaking of getting down to the Big Gig, make sure you check out our transportation guide, complete with info on bar shuttles, buses, Bublr bikes and beyond!)

Fan Appreciation Day

This one's easy: Everyone who shows up to Summerfest between noon and 3 p.m. gets in free! And if that wasn't enough, the first 30,000 folks through the gates will not only score an admission ticket for next year's Big Gig but also get an entry ticket into this year's Big Win drawing – with some big winnings up for grabs. All you have to do to enter is take your entry ticket to the marked bin at the midgate and drop it in between noon and 3 p.m., and you might just end the Big Gig a big winner!
