It's hard to believe that summer is winding down, and even harder to believe that it is already time for the August NEWaukee Night Market. As a proud sponsor, OnMilwaukee is ready to set up for tomorrow, and we hope to see you there.
The market will take place on Wednesday, Aug. 14 from 5 to 10 p.m. on the stretch of Wisconsin Avenue between Plankinton and Vel R. Philips Avenues. It's time to get outside, enjoy a summer night and love the city we call home.
From food trucks to local artists, there is no shortage of entertainment or places to splurge on a new treat for yourself. Engage with your community, watch some performances, try something new and have fun! Below are some highlights of some of the 60-plus vendors you might see at the NEWaukee Night Market on Wednesday.
