I Love To Spend A Summer Night At The Best Concert Venue in Wisconsin

There are a lot of great places to see live music in Wisconsin, including large outdoor amphitheaters, lively downtown clubs, and annual summer festivals. But there’s a little place to catch live music in Green County that’s hard to beat. Perched in the pretty hills on the edge of New Glarus, Bailey’s Run Vineyard & Winery keeps the live music and beverages flowing. When I visited this country winery, I discovered what a growing number of people already know: On a warm night, the place is about as good as Wisconsin gets.

Known as "America's Little Switzerland," this picturesque town delivers a big dose of Old World charm combined with plenty of Midwestern hospitality. I've enjoyed some great bike adventures on the surrounding Green County farm roads.

There are still many cheese factories in the area. But New Glarus is much more than a farming town.

On warm summer nights, musicians perform on a stage that’s set in front of the winery’s lush grape vines. People gather inside, on the lawn, or on the winery’s expansive porch.
