BratFest is back and bigger than ever, celebrating 43 years of community, charity, and incredible music over Memorial Day Weekend in Madison! Powered by volunteers and fueled by grilled goodness, BratFest isn't just a festival—it's a feel-good tradition with a purpose.

Tim Metcalfe and Michael Alexander joined DJ Fusion to break down what makes this year so special. With over 70 musical acts across three stages, free parking and admission, and all proceeds going to over 100 local nonprofits, BratFest is the ultimate way to turn up for a cause.

Music Lineup Highlights:


Hip-Hop Sunday: Featuring Quad City DJs, Ski Lo, Digital Underground, and Rip with Nikki Gracious.


Rock Legends:Steven Adler of Guns N' Roses, and in a surprise pivot, Winger headlines Friday night, stepping in for the legendary Ace Frehley.


Country & Christian Stars:Tyler Farr, Danny Gokey, Mackenzie Carpenter, Harper Grace, and Michael Alexander & Big Whiskey.


Local Flavor:Power TakeOff, Mad City Funk, La Cumbie, Rodelo the Kid, Bobby Bullitt, and more.

From red dirt country to Latin beats, Native American fusion to high-energy hip-hop, BratFest brings all of Madison together—literally. "You're going to see Madison," said Tim. "You're going to see country guys, Christian artists, families, and friends. It’s a place where the city unites."

Don't Miss:


Take Your Brat to Work Day kicks off Friday at 6AM on Willow Island. Grab brats by the bundle and be your office hero—while supporting a great cause.


Every bite and beat benefits local charities. To date, BratFest has raised over $2.8 million for local nonprofits.
