Summerfest's Marcus Amphitheater headliner announcements have been coming fast and furious for the past few weeks, but today the festival announced its first side-stage headliners. Steve Miller Band with opener Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives will headline the festival's BMO Harris Pavilion on June 26 and Styx will headline on July 1 . Tickets for both shows will go on sale Wednesday, March 11.
Expect more of these announcements in the coming weeks. "BMO Harris Pavilion headlining concerts will be announced as the shows are confirmed with tickets going on-sale soon afterwards, so fans should stay tuned for ongoing announcements," the festival wrote in a statement.
"Summerfest will once again offer seating options at the BMO Harris Pavilion with Miller Lite for all headlining performances," according to the festival. "This policy offers Summerfest fans the choice of either free general bleacher seating or reserved seats which will be available for purchase."
Bleacher seating will be available to the public free on a first-come, first-served basis on the day of the show. "Sections 1-5 of the BMO Harris Pavilion will be sold in advance for each headlining performance, allowing fans a guaranteed seat for their favorite artist," according to Summerfest. Tickets will go on-sale on a rolling basis as concerts are announced and prices will vary. The reserved seat ticket also includes admission to Summerfest on the day of the performance."
