Everybody needs an idea of what to do and places to go in Milwaukee. Well here are some of the best events and places to go during the summer.

1. Summerfest (June 28- July 2 + July 4- July 9)

Admissions Promotional:

Hours:

12:00pm to 12:00am Sunday – Saturday

The first event that should be on everyone’s calendar is Summerfest. Summerfest is the largest music festival in the entire country that goes for almost two weeks. This year marks the 50th Anniversary so they’re going all out with their music line ups this year. Some notable superstars who are going to be performing are The Chainsmokers, Luke Bryan, Future, Big Sean and Migos. Summerfest has a little bit of everything when it comes to music so you’re bound to have a good time. Tickets are a bit on the expensive side this year at $20 for General Admissions tickets, but Weekday admission tickets are a bit more generous at $13. The only difference is Weekday tickets only work from noon - 4:00 pm, Tuesday through Friday for Summerfest. They also have various events for free admission during the festival. You can see those events from the link above. My personal take is that if there is ever a year to go to Summerfest, this is the year.

2. State Fair (August 3-13)

Hours:

8 am – 11 pm Sunday – Thursday
8 am – 12 am Friday & Saturday
8 am – 10 pm Final Sunday

The second event that should be on everyone’s calendar is Wisconsin State Fair. The State fair is the place to go if you want to eat a variety of foods. The food item that’s most well-known are Cream Puffs. I’m personally not a fan, but to some it’s the best food in the food. The admission is very affordable at $12, plus State Fair has a sale going on for the tickets. Tickets are currently $6 until June 30th. So if you plan on going, now is the time to cop tickets.

3. Bradford Beach

The number one spot to go to for outdoor fun in Milwaukee would have to be Bradford Beach. You can grill out, play volleyball, walk on the shore line and just have fun in the sun. Without a doubt if you want to experience the outdoors, Bradford Beach is the spot.

If you want to have an enjoyable summer, these events will be the starting point. Hope y’all enjoy.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
