Held annually at McPike Park on Madison’s Isthmus, Fete has become a must see summer celebration of place and fundraiser for the Wil-Mar Neighborhood Center.

Fête takes place over four days from July 13th through the 16th and this year will feature New Orleans supergroup Tank and the Bangas, legendary New Orleans funk artist George Porter Jr. & Runnin’ Pardners and the unstoppable force in modern American music and activism, Hurray for the Riff Raff.

Also on the card is Madison perennial favorite Marcia Ball sitting in with The Jimmys, quintessential Louisiana zydeco artists Dwayne Dopsie and the Zydeco Hellraisers and grammy award winner Terrance Simien & The Zydeco Experience as well as Cajun greats Feufollet and the The Daiquiri Queens.

Fête de Marquette has built its must-attend status by bringing the complete Cajun State and New Orleans experience. Thus, Fête will also return Flow Tribe and the Soul Express Brass Band.

Finally, a Fête de Marquette best-ever House/Techno line-up featuring DJ Bone, DJ Sneak and many more will keep toes tapping to groovy sounds all night long!

And perhaps, best of all, thanks to its sponsors, Fête de Marquette remains an all-inclusive event as there is NO ADMISSION CHARGE to attend Fête.
