Two performances: 5:00-6:15 and 9:00 PM
About the festival:
Bastille Days is located in Downtown Milwaukee centered around Cathedral Square Park providing a unique setting that both residents and visitors of East Town, always find charming.
The event is known for the impromptu street performers, roaming minstrels, a variety of interactive and musical entertainment, and the signature 43-foot Eiffel Tower replica.
Visitors to Bastille Days are invited to explore this Parisian playground, participate in mini-French lessons, see an authentic French mass, laugh at the spills and thrills of the Waiter/Waitress race and make sure to have a beignet before heading home.
Of course it wouldn't be Bastille Days if there weren't a Storming of the Bastille, which in Milwaukee translates into a 5k "fun run" which kicks off the festival each year on the Thursday evening at 9pm.
