The Marcus Amphitheatre has been a staple for summer entertainment seekers living in Milwaukee and the Midwest United States. This seasonal venue is most often used for the headlining acts of Summerfest, the annual music festival on the Henry Maier Festival Grounds in Milwaukee. Marcus Amphitheater tickets include the Summerfest admission price when Summerfest is in full swing. Most people who attend a Marcus Amphitheater show spend some time walking the Summerfest grounds before heading into the venue.
The Marcus Corporation, a large entertainment business headquartered in Milwaukee and made the biggest financial contribution to help make the dream a reality. The naming rights were a "no brainer," and it became the Marcus Amphitheatre.
Completed in the late 1980s, the venue was originally built to accommodate to crowds of over 20,000. The entire venue was built after Summerfest attendees found themselves facing overcrowding at previous events. The shows had to go on rain or shine, and the Marcus Amphitheater roof ensured dry fans and musicians.
The venue has been updated since its early days to fit 25,000 fans at full capacity. The Marcus Amphitheatre has a great location, right on Lake Michigan, at the far south end of the Summerfest grounds, in the heart of downtown Milwaukee. Marcus Amphitheater tickets are a great gift idea.
