Mittenfest in Bayview!

Join us at Mittenfest, a winter street festival in Bayview!

Description from milwaukeerecord.com:

Over its 12-year run, Mitten Fest has earned the undisputed distinction of being Milwaukee’s favorite wintertime celebration. We’re pleased to report the sprawling block party and one-day escape from the seasonal doldrums will be coming back for another installment. The 2026 edition will once again take place in its rightful home outside of Burnhearts in Bay View.
From noon to 8 p.m. on Saturday, February 7, Mitten Fest will heat up the neighborhood with live music, craft beer and cocktails, tasty treats from area food vendors, and philanthropy. Today, *Milwaukee Record—*an official media sponsor of Mitten Fest along with WMSE—is proud to announce the top-notch musical lineup that will take the stage. Here it is! (Acts listed from headliner to opener)
5:30 p.m. start — The Hallelujah Ward
4:00 p.m. — Shrinestone
2:30 p.m. — Hello, Face
1:00 p.m. — Bellends

As if the stacked cast of musicians isn’t enticing enough, Burnhearts will serve rare and limited beers from Central Waters Brewery and Founders Brewing, its famous Brandyland old fashioneds (with Bittercube Bitters), Ginger Hot Toddies, and Valentine Coffee & Whiskey. You can enjoy food from area vendors, which will be announced as the event draws closer. As always, Burnhearts will also accept cash for Hunger Task Force.
Happy Mitten Fest, Milwaukee! We’ll see you there.
