For over 160 years, August in Milwaukee County has meant the Wisconsin State Fair. With more than a week of concerts, games, contests, and food vendors, the State Fair brings fun for all ages and the opportunity to try the famous Cream Puffs.
The festival season in Milwaukee is underway. It's a time to celebrate the variety of cultures, art, entertainment and cuisine that people from around the world have brought to Milwaukee.
In addition to celebrating Wisconsin, Milwaukee County celebrates its rich ethnic heritage at the Henry Maier Festival Grounds with Irish Fest, Arab World Fest and Mexican Fiesta. Warm weather may call you outdoors. Milwaukee County Parks feature beautiful scenery, concert series, farmer’s markets, and special events. And, of course, you can watch the Milwaukee Brewers continue their outstanding season at Miller Park. As you plan your Milwaukee experience, KEY Milwaukee is an excellent resource for planning your time. No matter what you choose to do in Milwaukee County, I hope you enjoy your time with us. Sincerely,
A number of factors contribute to the success of festivals in Milwaukee. We have splendid locations at our lakefront and downtown to hold big events. We have visitors and locals who turn out every year. Perhaps most importantly, we have dedicated volunteers who make sure the traditions continue. The cultural festivals in Milwaukee honor traditions and celebrate the arts. Unique dance and musical performances, history and great food are all shared with festival goers.
While many attendees have family connections to the celebrated cultures, the festivals embrace everyone. We celebrate our family roots and we invite everyone to join in! Sincerely,
Chris Abele, Milwaukee County Executive
Tom Barrett, Mayor

IRISH FEST turns lakefront green August 14-17
FOR FOUR DAYS this month Milwaukee’s lakefront festival grounds will look, sound and taste like an extension of the Emerald Isle. Recognized as the largest celebration of Irish culture in North America, Milwaukee Irish Fest Aug. 14-17 brings visitors from around the world to Henry W. Maier Festival Park (Summerfest grounds) for a celebration of Irish and Celtic music, culture, dance, sports, food, shopping and much more.
Using almost all of the 75-acre grounds on the city’s lakefront, the festival offers 16 stages of live entertainment with more than 100 acts. At the festival’s massive Cultural Village visitors can trace their Irish roots, learn the Irish language or take in a live theater performance and participate in many other activities, often led by residents of Ireland and other Celtic nations.
“If you want to experience the Emerald Isle – or if you’re just looking to have a great time with family and friends – Irish Fest is the place to be this August,” said Patrick Boyle, executive director of Milwaukee Irish Fest. “Our diverse offering of Irish music, culture and family entertainment makes Milwaukee the next best thing to Ireland itself.” Here are highlights that festgoers can experience this year:
Music from around the globe Music always takes center stage at Milwaukee Irish Fest. Festival planners bring the best and brightest groups, from Celtic rockers to traditional Irish balladeers. This year’s lineup includes artists from Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Nova Scotia, Canada and other Celtic nations.
Fan favorites include the Red Hot Chilli Pipers, Carlos Núñez, StepCrew, We Banjo 3, Creel, Skerryvore, Mànran, Sythian, Gaelic Storm and Sharon Shannon. Also returning is The Willis Clan, a band that’s currently competing on the hit TV show, America’s Got Talent.

Irish and Celtic culture Milwaukee Irish Fest celebrates all aspects of Irish and Celtic art, language, theater, sports and dance. In the Cultural
Village, visitors also can shop at the Moore Street Market, which hosts the largest gathering of Irish vendors in the world.
Traditional sounds of Scotland This year, Milwaukee Irish Fest hosts a special Scotland Music Showcase celebrating the richness of Scotland’s diverse traditional music. Eight Scottish bands will perform.
Brian Boru Millennium Celebration Milwaukee Irish Fest joins commemorations taking place across Ireland this year in celebration of the first modern ruler of Ireland, Brian Boru Dalcassian. Genealogists, historians, music experts, bow makers and chefs will present medieval exhibits, lectures and demonstrations. Food & spirits The Celtic Kitchen is an exciting new exhibit that celebrates Irish and Celtic food. The Celtic Kitchen will host live shows each day focusing on a variety of food and beverage favorites, including tea, baked goods and fresh fish. When the show is over, visitors can stop by one of the many food vendors throughout the grounds, or visit the Jameson Lounge for a signature drink like a Jameson and Ginger, Celtic Breeze or Jamerita.
Sports & family fun The sports activity area introduces festgoers to hurling, currach racing and competitive tug-of-war. They can try hurling in the hitting cage or watch currach boat races on the lagoon. Each year the tug-of-war area finds fans of all ages cheering for teams from throughout the Midwest. Milwaukee Irish Fest also features a large Children’s Activity Area, which includes a Leprechaun Village, Highland Games, Tea Room, Pot O’ Gold and a large craft area. New for 2014, kids can participate in a Viking Dig. Ongoing entertainment for kids includes Irish dancers, music, magicians and more.

Mexican Fiesta blends old and new in colorful lakeside event MeXICAn FIeSTA brings the sounds, culture and tastes of Mexico to Milwaukee’s lakefront Henry W. Maier Festival Park (Summerfest grounds) Aug. 22-24. The festival offers entertainment, exhibits, contests, shopping, food and other attractions from noon to midnight all weekend. Tequila tasting is available on all three days of the festival at the Fiesta Bar. The bar also will feature different kinds of wine. Sports and entertainment collide in the wrestling ring at Mexican Fiesta with Lucha Libre wrestling on Saturday and Sunday.
Visit the Cultural Pavilion to see beautiful arches, remarkable water fountain and handcrafted artisan works from the states of Mexico. Artists representing a number of Mexican states will display artworks ranging from woodcarvings to jewelry to corn husk dolls, with many available for purchase.
Don’t miss the mouth-watering Pan de Feria – traditional festival bread baked fresh every day by master bakers.
The Genealogy exhibit is where visitors can learn how to trace their “Mexican roots.” In addition, a rare 17th century handpainted map with text in both Zapotec and the Spanish language will be exhibited in the Genealogy area. This map, once 46
left forgotten in a desk, now is unlocking the history of the Mexican kingdom and the town of Santa Catarina Ixtepeji - oaxaca.
The Cultural Pavilion also features folkloric dances, music and craft workshops. Special exhibits this year focus on Corn Husk art and the first Mexican settler in Milwaukee. A huge pinata exhibit will delight festgoers of all ages.
Musical performances throughout the weekend include international recording superstars and other top acts featuring mariachi, salsa, banda, bachata merengue, cumbia and much more. The Rock en español Stage brings fun contemporary sounds to Mexican Fiesta.
A Mariachi extravaganza features three bands on stage every day of the festival. These same bands, two from Mexico and an all-girl band from San Antonio, will perform separately as well.
The dance traditions of Mexico will be showcased by several dance companies, including three from Mexico.
Crowds will gather for the fun of Mexican Fiesta’s contests – Salsarengue contest, dance contest, el Grito contest with Mariachi, jalapeno-eating contest and traditional costume contest – as well as other exciting competitions.
Hotwheelz 2014 is Milwaukee’s hottest car and motorcycle show, held at the north end of the festival grounds on Saturday. A soccer tournament (at Urban Park) will be held 1-6 p.m. Friday, and 8 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Midway rides as well as the Children’s Play Area and Children’s Stage add to the fun.

Registration begins at 8 a.m., welcome at 9 a.m. and walk kickoff at 9:30 a.m. Sunday only, look for the Fiesta Walk health sessions from noon-4 p.m.
Also Sunday, a lakefront procession at 10:15 a.m. is followed by Mass held in the Marcus Amphitheater with entry at the South Gate. (Gates close at 11:30 a.m. for the Mass). The Mass includes Principal Celebrant Most Reverend Donald Joseph Hying, Auxiliary Bishop of Milwaukee. Mass is free, but after Mass, promotions and gate ticket prices apply.
on display all weekend will be a special sanctuary of our Lady of Zapopan next to the Cultural Pavilion, with confessions heard from 6-8 p.m. every day.

KEY GOLF
For serious golfers, The Bull may be Wisconsin’s finest challenge By JERRY SLASKE KEY Milwaukee Golf Editor
IF JACK nICKLAUS’S SIGnATURe on a golf course doesn’t mean anything to you, perhaps you should stop reading now. If it does however, please take note. The Bull at Pinehurst Farms in Sheboygan Falls – Wisconsin’s only Jack nicklaus Signature Course – could very well be the state’s finest challenge for the serious golfer.
While I haven’t played every course in the state, I have played what are considered to be some of its most demanding, including Whistling Straits and erin Hills, and the Bull is definitely the toughest.
That doesn’t mean it’s impossible. If you don’t let your ego get in the way and you play within your game from the appropriate tee (five sets of tees ranging from 5,100 to 7,400 yards), you can walk to the 19th hole feeling like a pro. And it also doesn’t mean that it isn’t fun. In fact, this course is a riot for someone who likes to think their way around a course. The key at the Bull is accuracy. A bit of brawn helps as well, but, for 50
the most part, it’s all about hitting to the right spot.
The course has everything that Whistling Straits and erin Hills have, and a couple things they don’t, like trees…and plenty of them. Trees change a golfer’s mindset. Without them, you tend to be more relaxed and swing freer. At the Bull, the landing areas on the tree-laden holes (#s 5, 6, 7 & 16) are somewhat narrow and assuredly will tighten things up a little, if you know what I mean.
Then there is water. except for hole #s 5 & 18 at the Straits, there is no water there or at erin Hills. (oK, the Straits has Lake Michigan, but you have to be a pretty big duffer to hit one in the Lake. You have to want to; even then it’s difficult.) The Bull has water on #s 2, 3, 8, 10, 11, 14, 15 & 18, and, trust me, it comes into play. The one thing you don’t need at the Bull is a loan officer to play. Peak season rate is $135, but there
#5 hole at The Bull at Pinehurst Farms are plenty of specials during the season. When I played on June 30, the rate was $50! Also, it won’t take you 5+ hours to play. The average at erin Hills – even for the best golfers – is over five hours because of the distances between holes. our foursome teed off at about 8:30 and we were enjoying the view from the clubhouse bar before 12:30.
every hole is magnificent at the Bull…not a slouch in the bunch. In my estimation, the most challenging are #s 5, 16 & 18.
number 5 is a par 4 (436 yards from the back tees) dogleg left. The tee shot is through a narrow chute of trees, after which you must clear a ravine with the green perched on the far edge.
number 16 is an uphill par 4 dogleg left (425 yards from the backs). After an accurate… extremely accurate…tee shot, the second is through another chute of trees to a small, bunker-surrounded green just over a ravine.
And then there’s #18, a long par 4 (485 yards from the backs). The tee shot is all carry over a lake. That’s the easy part. The second shot is to a wide, shallow green (only the flag is visible) situated just over a marsh. For mere mortals like myself, play your second to the left of the green and then pitch on and hope you can one putt.
The Bull – located about 50 miles due north of downtown Milwaukee – may not have the marketing muscle or the glitzy website of courses like the Straits or erin Hills. Plus, it hasn’t hosted any major USGA or PGA events. But if you don’t play it, you’re missing out on one of golf’s gems in a state that is becoming an international golf mecca.
once this Bear Trap sticks its claws in you, it’ll never let go. And I can guarantee you’ll enjoy every shot.

Recently remodeled, the restaurant has an air of authenticity from the comfortable seating to the exotic objects displayed tastefully on the walls.
The menu includes beef, chicken, lamb and vegetarian dishes prepared with spices that take you on a culinary vacation. Generous portions are fun to share. Kabana Grill’s popular Friday, Saturday and Sunday buffet is perhaps the best way to sample the range of menu items. It has become so popular that owner Tehmina (Tina) Akbar is considering adding other buffet opportunities.
When successful Chicago-area restaurateur Brian Park decided to make his name in Milwaukee, he first opened WASABI SUSHI & SAKI LOUNGE in a row of businesses just east of the corner of Bluemound and Moorland Roads in Brookfield. (Park has added downtown’s Kanpai serving Japanese fusion and the east Side’s Stone Bowl with Korean-style “bibimbop.”) This month Wasabi will be part of the “feast with the beasts” fun at A la Carte at the Zoo.
During the day, shaded sunshine brightens the interior. At night, the glow from carefully placed lighting enhances the decor. But the food at Wasabi is so beautifully presented there should be spotlights shining on each gorgeous plate.
Wasabi signature rolls give the option of raw or cooked ingredients. If you are a hardcore sushi or sashimi fan, you'll join the chorus of those who describe the seafood as “the freshest I’ve ever tasted.” The full bar service includes an extensive sake menu, Japanese beers, wines, cocktails and Sake-Tinis. 58
on the west side, just west of US 41-45, JOEY’S SEAFOOD & GRILL is a must stop for those who enjoy great cuisine created with fish and seafood. The restaurant is on the east edge of Brookfield in a shopping center at the corner of busy Capitol Drive and n. 124th St. (12455 W. Capitol Dr.).
once a part of a small chain of seafood restaurants, Joeys today is an independent operation owned and operated by Jim Knop. (You also can get a taste of Joey’s at A la Carte at the Zoo and the Wisconsin State Fair.)
At the west side location, the restaurant conveys coastal ambience through steel drum band music and a décor that includes antique buoys and lobster traps and painted seascapes. Joey’s offers seafood and fish appetizers, entrees, sandwiches and more – as well as selections for landlubbers. Homemade rules here, and is reflected in the outstanding sauces, sides and desserts.
